About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts noticing that the mall Santa is not the only Santa in town or begins asking pointed questions about how one person can be everywhere at once. It is the perfect bridge for that transitional phase where kids are becoming more observant but still deeply crave the magic of the holiday season. Priscilla and her friend Bettina go on a determined cross-country skiing expedition to find the real North Pole after seeing too many department store imposters. This story celebrates childhood initiative, the bond of friendship, and the power of believing in something bigger than what you see on a shelf. It handles the 'multiple Santas' conundrum with grace and humor, maintaining the mystery of the North Pole while encouraging kids to think for themselves. It is an ideal choice for preschoolers and early elementary students who are ready for a slightly longer narrative filled with whimsical, Seussian illustrations and a sense of true adventure.
