Santa Claus: The World's Number One Toy Expert

This book by Marla Frazee is by far our favorite Christmas book.
No one knows more about toys, kids and gifts than Santa. He is definitely the expert. Get an inside look at how hard Santa works to match each particular toy to each particular child. How does he do it? He knows and loves each child so well.

He spends the whole year studying each child, takes lots of notes and compiles all his research. Then he finds (not makes) the best toys in the whole world. He makes sure they are fun to play with. And after changing his mind many times, he chooses the one toy that is sure to make each child the happiest.

The illustrations are playful and very humorous. And, I found it refreshing to see Santa depicted as a thoughtful giver rather than a boss of toymakers. So whether you're falling in love with Santa for the first time or all over again, you'll enjoy this read. Check it out.
