Review
I Believe In Santa Clauswill be a welcome addition to any childs library. We give it 4 hearts. -- Judy Schuler, Heartland Reviews
Santa Claus throughout history has been depicted as a kind red-suited man with white hair who loves children, comes in the night, and leaves gifts. These are also attributes of Jesus Christ. Believing in Santa Claus can lead children of all ages to feel the love of Jesus Christ. Text is beautifully illustrated in watercolor by Chad Randall. -- From the Publisher

This is the book that I have been looking for all my life! The book provides a perfect way to bridge the gap between Santa and Jesus Christ. It provides an opportunity to teach little children the true meaning of Christmas.

We've had this book for several years now. It has become a Christmas morning tradition; we read it before the kids see what gifts they've received. It's simple enough for my young children to read, and reminds us whose birth we celebrate. I love the association between the man who symbolizes Christmas (Santa) and the Man who is Christmas (Jesus).

My kids are grown but I think this book is precious. It explains Santa the way my mom explained it to me and how I explained it to my children years ago.
