Product Description: Far, far North, when the nights are longest and the stars shine brightest, Santa begins to prepare for his big night of giving. He gathers his reindeer, feeds them parsnips and berries, and polishes his bells and his sled. Then lovingly, he chooses toys for every child in the world. For Santa loves them all, and he knows what each child at heart wants most. Then, with the thrum of magic that makes reindeer’s fly, he spreads the Christmas joy and warmth throughout the world–as he always has — and always will until the end of time.

****This book is  very bright and colorful. The book is a little different from most christmas books. No mention of elf, Rudolph, or any of the reindeer by name.   It was a fun and interesting book. My kids really enjoyed it.
