Synopsis

The Legend of Santa Claus was written to help teach children about the true meaning of Christmas, which is to celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, while also being able to celebrate the secular tradition of Santa Claus. This story teaches what Santa is really about without dampening the whole magical tradition of Christmas. It provides a method for helping children understand the difference between the reality of Jesus Christ and the legend of Santa Claus. I didn’t want my own children and grandchildren to be confused by the things we say and do at Christmas time that could bring serious misunderstandings in their minds. It started out as just a poem I wrote. When I met George and Ruth Olson and realized their talents in art I asked them to help me turn my poem into a book. This little gem is the result and is my first published book. I hope you find it enjoyable and helpful in teaching your children about Santa Claus without undermining their learning about Jesus Christ. For Christian Children it is not always easy to understand the concept of putting their faith, trust and belief in a being with miraculous powers, who they cannot see, and not get confused between the two of them. We hope you enjoy this short read and the beautiful imagery created for this story. Jesus Christ truly is our Savior and He Lives! I love to celebrate His birth at Christmas. It is my favorite time of year. Merry Christmas!
