It's wonderful to see a children's book and about Christmas that has been carefully thought out (by adults) from the front cover to the back. The really clever part of the book are the five airmail envelopes that look impressively realistic. The pages between the envelopes have illustrations by Fia Tobing and the child's letter to Santa with an invention idea. The five envelopes each have a technical drawing and a personal letter from Santa about the inventions (worth saying that if you are buying a used copy of the book, check with the seller that all the envelopes' contents are included).
This delightful book is one of those that will probably be kept and discovered again every Christmas time.
