(3) K-3 Illustrated by John Clapp. A family driving in a snowstorm on Christmas Eve must stop at a motel. After everyone is asleep, the middle child frets that Santa won't find them, but "just in case," he leaves out some treats. Not only does the boy meet Santa, but he gets to help carry a sack of presents. The milieu, strong characterizations, and realistic illustrations in icy blues and greens make this Christmas tale stand out.
