Impressive book, October 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Santa and the Christ Child (Hardcover)
I first saw a statue of Santa kneeling next to the Christ Child several years ago, and I was thoroughly impressed. When I was teaching Sunday School last year, another teacher brought this in for me to read to the whole group. What an experience! I still believe in Santa Claus (at 25), and I was very glad to have a book that reconciled by religious beliefs about Christmas with my belief in Santa Claus. I recommend this book to everyone, young and old!

Blending Christmas themes, December 8, 1999
This review is from: Santa and the Christ Child (Hardcover)
The book Santa and the Christ Child is a wonderful, delightful, entertaining story for young and old. The author presents a pleasant blend of children's interest in Santa Claus and the theme of love and giving with the original Christmas message of the birth of the Christ Child. This enchanting story keeps the focus on the heart of Christmas rather than the commercialization of the season. It also provides an imaginative and fitting answer to Virginia Wolf's question, "Is there a Santa Claus?" What a delightful and appropriate defense of why we should not remove Santa Claus from Christmas, even Santa know the reason for the season and that is why he does what he does. I recommend this book to all persons who celebrate Christmas.

This book is a simple but meaningful story. Adults and children will love it from beginning to end. It explains what Christmas is all about, Jesus Christ's birth.

This book makes Baby Jesus cry :(, December 22, 2005
This review is from: Santa and the Christ Child (Hardcover)
What an ignorant book. Is this where our culture places Jesus Christ?! - on the same level as Santa Clause? "Look kids, Jesus rides with Santa Clause in his magic sleigh and helps him deliver presents!" It is disturbing to know that Christ is now just a fabel on par with Santa.
