Story about Santa not preparing properly for Christmas day, which means that everything went wrong. I expected it to rhyme though and it didn't.

Adorable Christmas Book
Such beautiful illustrations! I love all the children writing letters to Santa in different languages and then also saying “Merry Christmas” at the end of the book. I laughed at the reindeer in training on the treadmill. Wonderful read!

Santa is playing while there is work to be done. Will he be ready for Christmas?
I enjoyed this story. Santa decides to have fun and play while the elves are getting worried he won't be ready for Christmas. Santa is not worried at all as he plays and enjoys himself. I had fun reading this. The illustrations are wonderful and complement the story very well. Worth the read.

A beautiful book, with some phrases in different languages, to encourage kids to organise themselves before doing something and be prepared, or else the outcome would not be the way they want. I will not put in any spoilers, but am sure kids will love the book just as much as I did!

A cute cautionary Christmas tale!
Children will love all of Santa’s excuses as to why he isn’t getting organised for the main event on Christmas Eve! Lovely illustrations combine with a fun story that subtly teaches about the importance of being a bit better prepared!

Santa's a procrastinator, or is he?
This is such a cute story of how Christmas went all wrong all because Santa wanted to have fun instead of getting ready for Christmas Eve. Everyone else is working hard to get prepared and he refuses when the elves and Mrs. Claus ask him to. He's busy having fun. Christmas Eve is here, he jumps in his suit and it doesn't fit, a nice girl gets coal by mistake, a little boy sees Santa when he wasn't supposed to. A surprise twist at the end you'll have to read it to find out the rest. A must have on your shelves for a holiday tradition.

Merry Christmas
I enjoyed this book. The author puts a creative spin on the classic tale of Christmas. All that we’re accustomed to hearing what Santa does on “The Night Before Christmas” gets turned on its head in this fun story. Santa plays just as hard as he works, good read!
