Dear Santa, Let Me Explain...

Tuesday, June 5, 2007 by Jason

Every now and then, a Christmas comes along that doesn’t quite go according to plan. Like the time Mom forced you to wear that ugly green and red sweater to school (you know, the one Grandma hand-sewed with the reindeer and the little bells). Or the time Uncle Rico had just a little too much eggnog and tripped into the Christmas tree.

We all have a similar story of our own. A true holiday disaster story. These are the moments that define us; these are the tales that give each family its character. And the telling of these stories become a holiday tradition all their own, just like watching Frosty the Snow Man or suffering through a slice of Aunt Martha’s fruit cake. These stories make us laugh, they make us cry, they make us shake our head in shame.

Told through illustrated essays and sequential comic art, Dear Santa, Let Me Explain... is the book that collects these stories. These aren’t just the stories your family laughs about each year as they gather ‘round the table for Christmas dinner, but also the ones the adults repeat in barely contained giggles over spiked hot chocolate after the kids have gone to bed.

Dear Santa, Let Me Explain..., edited by James W. Powell, is 24 of the funniest, most heart-warming stories ever told about Christmas, even if they aren’t all about bows and candy canes.

Dear Santa, Let Me Explain... is available for acquisition. Please contact James W. Powell with any questions.
