This is a pristine and unread copy which has been stored flat in archival conditions since the book was signed by the author-illustrator while I escorted her on tour while I worked for her publisher. Please see my attached photos of the book and signature.

About this title

Synopsis

Santa Claus calls upon Albert and his Pleasant Valley pit stop crew to aid him in his midnight ride around the world, and as the clock ticks away, the gang mends, feeds, and squeegees the reindeer and sleigh, until it is all systems go.
