Are you up for a thrilling adventure?
Set in 1950's Britain, this standalone short adventure story will suit anyone who enjoys Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys or the Famous Five. A clean and wholesome read.
While spending their Christmas holidays with their grandparents in Scotland, Joe, Amy, and Sarah, along with their friend Will, stumble across an injured man dressed in a red Santa suit. With a storm quickly approaching, can the children rescue Santa Claus and save Christmas?
The Mystery of Santa Claus by Paul Moxham is set on Christmas Eve. On their way home, four kids find a guy dressed up as Santa Claus lying on the ground.
Can Joe, Amy, Sarah, and Will figure out who the guy is and why he is dressed as Santa Claus?
Joe, Amy, Sarah, and Will are all spending Christmas in Dunmoore, Scotland, at Joe, Amy, and Sarah’s grandparent’s house. The three siblings love spending time at their grandparent’s house and especially with spending time with Will. The four of them were on their way home from the town to where they were staying when they found an accident, which turned into trying to save an old man dressed as Santa Claus.
I like the four of them and their determination to get help for the old man.
Four Stars
My rating for The Mystery of Santa Claus by Paul Moxham is four stars. I also recommend it since it’s a short Christmas read for any kid to read while drinking hot cocoa and snuggled up in a blanket. Mr. Moxham has these kid’s personalities down, and it’s a sweet read.
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of The Mystery of Santa Claus by Paul Moxham.
Until the next time,
