From the beloved duo Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen comes a wonderfully imaginative and humorous exploration of how Santa manages his Christmas Eve deliveries. The book playfully addresses the question of how Santa enters homes, whether through a chimney, a faucet, or by shape-shifting. It's a perfect read-aloud that encourages fanciful explanations and sparks further speculation, making it an ideal addition to family holiday traditions for children aged 4-11.
The beloved, multi-award-winning duo of Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen tackle a perennial question. When Santa arrives at a child’s house on Christmas Eve, does he go down the chimney feetfirst or headfirst? What if he gets stuck? What if there’s no chimney? Maybe he slides under the door, as thin as a piece of paper? Or is it possible he pours himself through the faucet? What happens once he’s inside? Whether it’s shape-shifting or impromptu laundry use, Mac Barnett’s iconic talent for earnest deadpan humor and Jon Klassen’s irresistibly funny art honor the timeless question with answers both ridiculous and plausible, mounting in hilarity as the night continues. Channeling a child’s fanciful explanations (and begging for further speculation), this latest collaboration by a New York Times best-selling team will find a secure spot among family holiday traditions.
