The Christmas Magic by Lauren Thompson and Jon J Muth
Christmas books, and specifically children’s books about Santa, are often really disappointing to me. Maybe my standards are way too high when someone wants to publish a book about Mr. Claus. Or maybe I am right, and there is a group of really horrible Santa books.
Well, I finally found *our* Santa book. The story and the illustrations and perfect. Just perfect. I hope my two nieces with upcoming birthdays aren’t reading this post because this book is what they are receiving! I bought one for our home too. This book really has the *it* factor. I know already it is going to be an important part of the Christmas season in our home.
It makes Santa come across as down-to-earth but magical at the same time. Boy, do I love this book. You should check it out. Really, go on now.
This should do the rest of the convincing…
Oooohh - that looks so lovely! I love Lauren Thompson and Jon J Muth, too. Looks like I’ve found our new Christmas book for this year - thanks!
I’m convinced
A note of thanks from the author! Thanks for your kind and enthusiastic words about my book. I’m amazed at Jon J Muth’s artwork — he really captured what I was after with this Santa. Even he knows that it’s not about him, it’s about the Magic. And where does the Magic come from? Well, what does your heart tell you?
Hope your nieces enjoy the book!
All best,
Lauren Thompson
