About the book
It’s Christmas Eve. A boy and a girl set out on a cold night
to do a favour for a neighbour. One of the children thinks Santa
can help. But the other is far too smart to be taken in by all that
kids’ stuff…
For families, festive season cynics and the rest of us who never
quite stopped believing, here is the real story behind Santa Claus.
A cleverly written tale that incorporates historical facts and an
exciting story of the adventure of two siblings who re-discover
the true history of Santa Claus.
