Book of the Week: Are You Grumpy, Santa?

“We all know Santa’s jolly,
but there’s something else worth knowing.
There are times when even Santa doesn’t feel like HO-HO-HO-ing!”

Have your little ones ever had one of those days where nothing seems to go right? Their favourite stuffed animal gets stuck down the side of the bed, you refuse to let them have cookies for lunch, and it’s too cold to go to the park.

Perhaps it would make them feel better to know that even a merry guy like Santa has his bad days.

In this week’s silly Book of the Week, Are You Grumpy, Santa? by Gregg and Evan Spiridellis, poor Santa can’t catch a break as he stubs his toe, endures a cold shower and is put on a diet by Mrs. Claus—all before he even leaves the North Pole on Christmas Eve. His luck doesn’t get any better throughout the evening, until a child’s heartfelt letter and plate of cookies restores his merry mood.
