Christmas is always a special time of year. It’s a time of celebration, reflection, gift-giving, loving, compassion and get-togethers with family and friends. This book contains nine (9) short tales in which Christmas is the central theme. Some tales have a religious theme, some a secular theme. All are about being human at a special, magical and mystical time of year. These are some of Santa’s favorite Christmas stories: enough enjoyment for every taste. Please be sure to check out other works written by the same author: New Mexico: A Glimpse Into An Enchanted Land, and Against the Wind, Courageous Apache Women . Both books are available on-line and traditional bookstores, including Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Five poems and three sketches also appear in an anthology entitled: More Voices of New Mexico, published separately by Rio Grande Books. This title is also currently available. Please keep an eye out for these new titles.

A treasury of classic Christmas stories.

It’s the week before Christmas and there is a lot of activity at the North Pole. Three of the Elves, Charlie, Ted and Henry, are in the barn working on the sleigh. Santa has been spending too much time in the kitchen, eating warm cookies from the oven. With Mrs. Claus’s help, he realizes he’s gained weight. Santa can’t understand why children are bullied for looking different or why children bully others. He looks for the answer and finds it in the star-filled night that he has become so familiar with on his travels on Christmas Eve. He realizes material gifts may not be the ones most appreciated, or the ones he’d like to deliver.

A history of Santa and his elves.

Filled with fish stories and tales out of school, this collection is far more than just a piscine fancy.

Your child will enjoy this new spin on Christmas, as Santa explains his favorite gift: Jesus Christ.
