The Awesome True Story of Santa! - Buchan Polina
- A direct and honest way to (re)introduce Santa Claus to your child
Whether your child is ready for the truth about Santa Claus, or you want to be upfront about Santa from the very beginning, this rhyming story will help you start the conversation in an honest and positive way.
Kids will learn about the origin story of Saint Nicholas in a secular, non-religions context. They will find out how "Saint Nick" inspired others to give selflessly, without needing thanks or praise. The story highlights why we continue to think of this person, who lived a long time ago, when we give holiday presents to each other. The reader will understand why it can be fun to gift in secret and pretend that the gift is from "Santa".
The book ends with a message to inspire the child to keep the spirit of Santa Claus, Saint Nicholas, Père Noël, Sinterklaas, Father Christmas, Grandfather Frost, Ded Moroz, or whatever they choose to call the character, alive through their own generosity:
"Friends can be Santa Claus for each other,
Older Sis can be Claus for her brother,
Dad or Gramps can be Santa for you,
If you give, you can be Santa too!"
Beautifully illustrated and featuring diverse characters and families, this book would make an excellent holiday present for a kid of any age. The story uses simple, direct language and bright imagery, sure to keep the attention of toddlers through tweens.
