Publisher's Synopsis
Much of the detail in Santa Claus lore was added to his long history of stories in the 19th century. His storied home became the North Pole around this time. Today, the North Pole is symbolic of Santa, and sending letters there may be an essential part of the Christmas season. Beginning readers will be in awe of how this story came to be and can read more about real-life "North Poles," such as Santa's Village in Finland. Colorful historical illustrations aid readers' understanding as they learn about this Christmas symbol.
