This review is from: All I Want for Christmas Is...: Letters from Santa's Mailbag (Paperback)

In addition to writing his doctoral thesis on Santa, the author is a licensed psychologist, a professional storyteller and has worked as a Santa Claus for sixteen years. Also, some letters were gathered from US Post Offices. The collection is divided into five sections: What I Want for Christmas and Some Special Instructions; Wishes and Requests from the Heart; On Being Good, Appreciation and Affection; Odds and Ends; and, P.S. -- Just One More Thing. Some letters are reproduced and a few drawings are included. the letters are charming and a few are heartbreaking -- this is definitely a wonderful book about children's faith and hope. Part of the proceeds from the book are donated to Feed the Children. Buy this book! ho ho ho

this book is full of funny one page letters to santa, ranging of requests for everything from world peace to a red dragon. The letters are sweet and silly, that make you laugh out loud. So if you're in the mood for something to warm the heart and tickle the soul then this book is definitly for you!
