    “The Story of Santa Claus” is a delightful story about a young man who lives in his little wooden house and loves to make children happy by making them toys. Claus likes to carry his sack full of dolls, drums, horns, and wooden animals, and walk to the village passing out toys to children along the way. When winter comes, Claus is not able to walk to the village anymore. One day Claus meets magic deer that encourage him to make a sleigh so they can pull him across the snow into the nearby town. When Claus arrives in the village everyone is sleeping. So the deer carry Claus, and the sleigh, to the rooftop so Claus can climb down the chimney to deliver presents. And so it continues that on every Christmas Eve, with a sack full of toys, and reindeer to pull his sleigh, Santa Claus delivers presents to every little girl and boy.

    “The protagonists use their quick wit and brains to save the day . . . Irresistible and hilarious.” —School Library Journal   With its kid-perfect humor and dynamic illustrations, the first book in the Templeton Twins series left young readers clamoring for more. This time, Abigail and John Templeton find themselves at TAPAS (the Thespian Academy of the Performing Arts and Sciences) where their father, the illustrious Professor Templeton, has been hired to invent a groundbreaking theatrical device. Once again, there is drama (of course!), silliness, and suspense, as the twins (and their ridiculous dog) must thwart the dastardly Dean brothers in order to save the invention as well as their father (and the dog). Oh yes, there is sure to be another recipe. This time for guacamole. Or is it coleslaw?   “The intrusive, self-absorbed narrator hogs the limelight and keeps the vocabulary words and brainy laughs coming.” —San Francisco Chronicle
