The holidays are here and getting into the spirit means that what better book could be read than the memoirs of "Santa".
This was a lighthearted and heartwarming story of how one man who had the natural appearance of Santa Claus took on the job and the persona of the jolly man himself.  Loads of fun and one that I will probably re-read every year just for the spirit of Santa!
