Blurb

Five children from all around the world write to Santa Claus with ideas for Christmas gifts and are amazed when he writes back! Through five letters from Santa that children can pull out and read, the hidden world of the North Pole is revealed, from how reindeer can sleep standing up to what snacks Santa would like left out on Christmas Eve and how he gets round the world so quickly. But will the gifts the children have requested be made in time? This nostalgic, festive tale is written and art directed by Annie Atkins, the legendary film prop designer of The Grand Budapest Hotel, Isle of Dogs and Box Trolls, and beautifully illustrated by Fia Tobing.
