Illustrated by
John Manders.
When Santa decides to take his first vacation, the reaction of children around the world surprises him. McGinley's rhyming text was originally published with illustrations by Kurt Werth and later inspired a classic stop-motion animated TV special. This newly illustrated edition maintains all of the original's read-aloud charm while accentuating its playfulness with Manders's vibrant gouache and pencil illustrations.
