Written by a long-time Santa Claus portrayal artist, 'Becoming Santa Claus: An Origin Story' imagines the fourth century journey that transformed Nicholas of Myra into the man the world would come to know as Santa Claus. It seeks to offer thoughtful, plausible answers to many of the questions children ask each year, instead of relying on, 'MAGIC!' It answers many of the hows and whys surrounding Santa, the elves, reindeer, the North Pole and, of course, Mrs. Claus.Leaving behind wealth, comfort and prestige, Nicholas follows a calling that carries him far from home and into unfamiliar lands. Along the way, he faces hardship and danger as he tries to do his work anonymously. The rumors start getting close to the truth, so he keeps moving.Blending historical fiction, adventure, warmth, and wonder, this illustrated story explores the beginnings of the Santa Claus legend through the themes of generosity, sacrifice, courage, friendship and purpose.Written for children, families and readers of all ages, Becoming Santa Claus: An Origin Story is a Christmas story to be shared, remembered and revisited year after year.
