I loved this book. It is 40 pages of an excellent reminder of who Nicholas actually was. It would be a great story to read to your kids. It is easy to read, and perfect for kids 4th grade up to read by themselves.
I highly recommend this for and Christian family to read because it is always good to remember the why, how, and who in legends. I give it 5 of 5 stars. You can purchase this book here.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Santa, of course, is a commercial icon. But it is good to remember that the original version was a real pastor remembered for his kindness to children and to strangers 1700 years ago.
It is good for kids to know there was such a person and it is good for adults to be such a person.
To the degree The Santa Papers helps you think about an ancient pastor when you think of Santa, it will be a success.
