This slight story aimed only at NYC residents or tourists describes Santa's Christmas Eve journey to the Big Apple. In this very modern take, his "Santa-nav" (GPS) doesn't help in a blizzard, but Santa is saved when his youngest reindeer hears the bells of St. Patrick's Cathedral. The usual city hot spots are mentioned in the purposeful text and pictured in the chipper illustrations.
