WONDERFUL story about the history of Santa Claus. I do find it ironic that it is an "autobiography" when it is written by someone else, but other than that, I would highly recommend this book to anyone.
The story opens up with "You're right to believe in me." St. Nicholas basically kidnaps the author and takes him on a journey to tell him his entire life story beginning 280 A.D. all the way to the present time. You meet his many helpers along the way (including some famous people), and learn how the gift giving began. There are many cute quotables in this book along the way, and one thing I really loved about it was that it interwove historical facts everywhere so that the story of Santa Claus seemed more realistic. Very cute read, and will definitely inspire the Christmas spirit within you!
