"Don't Kill Santa!": Christmas Stories

112 pp. | August | October, 2006 | Trade ISBN 0-87483-746-4 $14.95
(4) 4-6 These Christmas-based childhood recollections are steeped in 1950s rural North Carolina nostalgia. The stories feel familiar--variations of the Christmas pageant gone awry, kids discovering that their parents are Santa, concerns about how Santa will find them after they move--and somewhat forced. Based on the author's oral storytelling, the book contains lively language but the cadence is lost in transcription.
