The Story of Mrs. Santa Claus tells about Mrs. Santa’s life, starting when she was a young girl, at her home near the North Pole. She was friends to the many animals who lived near her, and she could talk to them. The animals gave her the nickname, Fauna. Fauna’s favorite animal friends were the flying reindeer, who would take her on flights around the world to see animals who lived in faraway lands. During one of their flights Fauna noticed that many baby animals had no toys to play with, so she started to make toys for them. Months later Fauna realized that she, alone, could not complete the job before the end of the year, while the animal babies were still young. Distraught, Fauna took a long walk to the North Pole to think. There she met a little boy named Santa who was also upset. Santa was making toys for good boys and girls, and with his elf helpers he was on schedule, but he had no way to deliver them. Fauna and Santa solved their problems by sharing resources—Santa’s elf friends helped Fauna finish making her toys (They completed the job a whole week before the end of the year!) and Fauna’s reindeer friends helped Santa deliver his toys. Fauna and Santa grew up, fell in love, and built a house where they first met—at the North Pole. The couple continues their toy-delivery activities to this very day. The Story of Mrs. Santa Claus is a brightly-illustrated, 20-page hardcover children’s book for children of all ages
