Descripción: "An additional purchase for libraries wishing to add to their look-and-find and holiday collections." - School Library JournalSanta . . . You know his beard, his sleigh, his reindeer, and his presents. Because you see those every December. But do you know what he’s up to the rest of the year?A funny picture book about what Santa does when it’s not Christmas. With enough look-and-search-games for an entire year of reading. For little helpers ages 5 years and up. From School Library Journal K-Gr 3—What does Santa do during the other 364 days of the year? You may have thought he helped his elves get the gifts ready for the children, but he does so much more. "… you don't get a body like that for nothing. It's not a pajama. It requires maintenance. That's why Santa is always working out." In a search-and-find—style book, readers are asked at the beginning to be on the lookout for certain items. Kids don't get reminders of what they are supposed to find on each page, and they will need to refer to beginning to remember the items on the list. Small, lengthy writing and tiny illustrations in muted reds, browns, and greens can be difficult to wade through. Determined readers will find humor in the small details of the illustrations. VERDICT An additional purchase for libraries wishing to add to their look-and-find and holiday collections.—Tracy Cronce, Stevens Point Pub. Sch. District, WI Review "An additional purchase for libraries wishing to add to their look-and-find and holiday collections." - School Library Journal "Santa’s year by Rik Peters is an adorable search and find with endearing illustrations and witty dialogue. The story leads readers through a typical year in Santa’s life and the different rooms in Santa’s home. Unlike other search and finds the difficulty to find each image rotates per page, allowing even the adults to pause and really look through the whimsical illustrations. As a Librarian who grew up with the Eye Spy series, I have a passion for activity books that allow children of all reading levels and abilities to spend time with a book. Love of reading comes from more then the actual words, the story and illustrations can inspire a lifelong love of books. I did not see a answer page at the end, but enjoyed the hunt and the other hidden surprises on each page. A terrific and fun read will be a hit among all the children and adults this holiday season. Thank you for offering this book as a Read Now option, I will be suggesting this title to my library!" - Cobourg Public Library"This book will definitely be a new family favorite around the holidays and year round. It is engaging with find and seek games throughout and tells the cutest story of what Santa is doing the other 364 days of the year. From taking driving his fancy red race car, to eating healthy since he splurges on so many sweets for Christmas, and of course how he manages the naughty and nice list. The illustrations are adorable throughout and grabs the attention of young readers. Overall this book is fun for the whole family." - Blessed and Blooming Schoolhouse About the Author Rik Peters is a Dutch author.
