Synopsis

A Christmas story for all year round!

Joe's Snack Bar is a favorite summer spot where happy customers from all over town come to buy ice cream cones and french fries. But every time autumn rolls around, Joe shuts down shop and disappears until the next summer. The townspeople all have their own theories about where he goes: "He's gone to the moon," cries tiny June. "He's on a safari," says Charlie McFarley. "In Okefenokee!" screams Mrs. Bodokey. They're all wrong, of course. Joe's actually in charge at the North Pole three quarters of the year, but only Joe and the reader will ever know. Food-and-fun-filled illustrations show how each person imagines what Joe could be up to.

Reviews

In a starred review, PW said, "Readers will have fun speculating along with the customers of a popular snack bar as to the off-season destination of its plump, white-bearded owner. This light-hearted romp concludes with a wordless surprise ending: Joe is none other than Santa." Ages 3-6.
