I loved the story “Santa’s Secrets Revealed” for many reasons. First, the illustrations are incredibly colorful, in depth, and take up the entire page. Also, each page has so much going on for children to look at. Whether it’s reindeer, elves, Santa Claus, satellite videos, computers, or maps of the world, the reader is able to feel as though they are truly in the story. I also love the way this book was written. For instance, there are many speech bubbles, different colored words, letters and lists, and a big screen that explains the science behind Santa Claus. This amusing story is perfect for children because it answers the many questions they have about Santa Claus. I especially loved how Santa’s star reindeer was a cow, because Rudolph was home “recovering from a bad fruitcake,” which children would love. Overall, I think the main idea of this story is to believe in the magic of Christmas. ( )

A boy didn’t believe in Santa. Santa came to his house. The boy tried to see if Santa was real. Santa showed the boy a list of all the bad things that he had done. The boy finally believes in Santa. ( )
