Thank you for this comment, Donna… This means more to me than I can say…This is what it’s all about!!!

“…We love you. You gave us a 3 year old child that wants to read books with us. Until we had your books, she would not sit down to read any book. Now Ashlyn comes up and begs us to read the books to us. Thank you again.”

“Santa’s Birthday Gift”…What Santa gives, not gets!

Happy Thanksgiving!  Yes, I know Christmas is not yet here, and we all have lots to be thankful for, and I wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving!…

But the birth of Jesus is something we are all thankful for also, and it makes Thanksgiving even more special to anticipate what is coming next!

So as Christmas approaches,  I thought I’d share once more the Santa’s Birthday Gift YouTube trailer, reminding everyone of the reason for the season…

(After I read the story of the Nativity to my grandchild, she asked, “But where’s Santa?”  which inspired this story…)

Thanks Cassandra, for being such a wonderful role-model for your niece, but also for setting such a outstanding example of what a teenager can accomplish, even suffering with Juvenile Myositis and Juvenile Arthritis… She has such a positive outlook on life!  She is also quite a talented dancer in spite of her arthritis, and her group’s presentation at the school football game was awesome!

Please take a look at her Facebook Page, especially her bio about her diseases:

You will be amazed!  (PS – She is also one of my Junior Reviewers!)

Each book is unique and themes may differ; yet all her books weave a common thread of respect, manners, kindness and appropriate behavior for young children. Santa’s Birthday Gift, in particular, sheds light on the meaning of Christmas and includes a fascinating tale of Santa as a stargazer led to Bethlehem to discover the meaning of the birth of baby Jesus.  Enchanting and delightful, this book was written for her granddaughter who asked where was Santa when reading the Nativity scene.

Nice Note from a Parent about Santa’s Birthday Gift…

Nice note from a parent about Santa’s Birthday Gift!

I absolutely love Santa’s Birthday Gift. What a way to bring the two traditions together. You have such a way with words, it is like magic. Ashlyn would NEVER sit for a book before and now she actually begs me to read. If you would know Ashlyn, she is about as ADHD as any child can be so this is HUGE! I LOVE YOU and YOUR BOOKS. THANK YOU so much. It is like a gift on its own.
