Book Description:

October 9, 2012
In a world where elves are only slaves, one boy is determined to make things right. With the elves' help, Kris decides to begin with the children. But can a pile of gifts on Christmas Eve really change anything? This enchanting story is sure to captivate kids of all ages. An instant holiday classic you'll want to read again and again!


My Review: 

There have been many stories told about Kris Kringle, but never quite like this. We hear his story told from the perspective of his bride, Rebecca (Mrs. Kringle). From the start we realize what a special man Kris Kringle is. There is more to this man, than a bearded figure in red who drives a sled. Kris champions the elves, who are slaves and treated as little more than animals. Kris comes to their rescue as they are discriminated against by the "humans". Soon he creates a bond with the Elves that will last for centuries. 

This story has so many themes that run through it...

-Standing up for those being bullied or discriminated against.

-Loving those who are different from us.

-Having the courage to stand for what is right and good. 

-How powerful the gift of Love truly is when given freely.

I know that this book will be a new family Christmas story tradition. Though not as fluffy as other Santa stories, this one will make you think and feel about the hows and whys of Kris Kringle's yearly journey around the world. Author Diane Tolley has written another Christmas story to warm your heart and spread the Christmas spirit of love and caring. 


Buy this book now to get your family ready for Christmas or purchase this magical book for those you love. Kris Kringle's Magic will make a great gift this Christmas season.
