Title: The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus
Product review: This is L. Frank Baum's take on Santa Claus and his origins, which are far outside traditional Christian beliefs. It is short, easy to read, but not just for children. It is something of a folk tale and alternate history wrapped into one story that explains how gifts, especially toys; stockings; Christmas trees; and reindeer became associated with Christmas. It even tells us how Christmas came to be on Dec. 25. Of course, it is all fictionalized and entertaining. This book was published 1903, but still holds up.
