When Santa Stopped Believing in Children

Children stop believing in Santa Claus every day. But did you ever wonder what would happen if Santa stopped believing in children? In this wonderful Christmas story for young readers, Santa is fed up with all the kids who think he’s a myth. If they won’t believe in him, he won’t believe in them. There are no more children, he declares. All kids care about these days is what they’re going to get for Christmas. They don’t even like to play in the snow anymore.

But in a magical journey that reminds us of Dickens “Christmas Carol,” Santa’s chief elf takes him to see that there are still kids in the world. They’re gentle and caring and love to make snow angels, just like they always did. In the end, Santa relents and Christmas is back on.

This is a perfect holiday read for children 6 to 9. It makes a fine bedtime story for younger kids. It’s guaranteed to warm the hearts of adults, too. Snuggle up and start reading.
