How can this be "The Autobiography of Santa Claus" if the author's name is "Jeff Guinn"? Is Jeff trying to tell us something. Is "Jeff" Santa's secret identity?
Just kidding of course. Sounds like a interesting book. Most of the reviews over on the Amazon site are very favorable. However, as an historian I was bothered by the Amazon reviews that this book has Santa saying we should not have fought the American Revolution and that Attila the Hun gave up war to make toys for kids. Also, that he would not give gifts to children in war-torn lands because that make the gifts less powerful, or something to that effect. Something to explore before you go reading it to school children who are at an age when fantasy should not be offered as historical fact.
