| Publisher Description: The Secret of the Santa Box by Christopher Fenoglio, with illustrations by Elena Makansi, is a delightful poem written in the same lyrical style as 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. The book helps parents tell their children the truth about Santa in a positive, loving way. It is ideal for families who have outgrown the "Elf on a Shelf" and are ready to move forward to the true meaning of Christmas. |
