In this slight but sweet picture book, Santa is so excited about delivering toys that he has a hard time keeping quiet on Christmas Eve. His loud Hee hee, a giant Ah choo! and his nervous stumbling threaten to wake up sleeping children on his route. Luckily, he avoids disaster and makes it back to the North Pole where he can let out a big HO, HO, HO! Kids will giggle at Santas clumsiness and childlike behavior, and theyll likely take a shine to Warness (I Dont Want to Go to Bed) cartoony rendition of a roly-poly Saint Nick. Ages 3-7.
