Reach for this book when the holiday season has your child filled with a million questions and a sense of 'too-excited-to-sleep' magic. It is perfect for those moments when the traditional Santa myth feels a bit distant and your child wants to bridge the gap between their own world and the North Pole. The story follows a young girl who discovers Santa in her home and treats him not just as a legend, but as a potential friend to be interviewed and toured around her bedroom. Jarvis uses his signature wit to explore the relatable curiosity of childhood. Rather than focusing on the 'naughty or nice' list, the book centers on the joy of connection and the whimsical details kids actually care about, like whether Santa has an innie or outie belly button. It is a warm, humorous, and deeply comforting read for children aged 3 to 7, validating their imagination and their desire to see the extraordinary inside their own everyday lives.
