Narration Toward Books The Legend of Holly Claus

Santa Claus is the King of Forever, Land of the Immortals. When one special boy writes to Santa asking what no other child has ever asked, a miracle occurs: Santa and Mrs. Claus are blessed with a daughter. But the birth of Holly Claus also brings about a terrible curse--from an evil soul named Herrikhan. Holly's heart is frozen, and the gates to Forever are locked, barring exit or entry.

As she grows into a beautiful and selfless young woman, Holly longs to break the spell that holds her people hostage. With four faithful and magical animal friends, she escapes to the wondrous world of Victorian New York, where she will face countless dangers, adventures, and a miracle all her own.

TL;DR: This book is a perfect example of what its supposed to be a Christmas fairytaleFirstly, there are many a book reviewer who would rate this book poorly for reasons I will discuss further down. Excepting technical aspects like spelling and grammar (I know this should be a given, but I live in both the self-published and traditionally published world), I tend to judge books based on what theyre meant to be, not an across-the-board system. Im not going to judge The Legend of Holly Claus by

Christopher is a little boy who lives with his mother. They have come on hard times and don't have much, still, all this little boy asks Santa for for Christmas is, what would Santa like to receive. So begins a beautiful, magical story, about all that Santa and his wife ever wanted, a child they named Holly. Holly's birth brings about a lot of change, to her home, The Land of Immortals. That change comes in the form of Herrikhan. An evil warlock who was cursed and imprisoned centuries ago, he

I admit I was very intrigued by the plot line but, unfortunately, I was disappointed by the execution.The book is written as if it was cut and pasted too much. Most of it felt disjointed and did not flow, while at other times it flowed quite smoothly. I believe there were so many back stories within the larger story that it became challenging knowing when to insert them.

Read the full review at Lauren the Librarian.A young boy is encouraged to write to Santa Claus at the beginning of the story by his mother. Ten year old Christopher writes that he has everything he needs in this world, but instead asks the benevolent ruler of The Land of Immortals if there is anything he wants for Christmas. It is in this beautiful spirit of giving that this story takes flight. Unbeknownst to young Christopher, he plays a great role later on in the story.When Nicholas Claus

Constructive ImaginingThe story's felicity of language adds to the pleasure of reading.Each character provides incentive for family discussion,encouraging further exploration of history and mythology.Vivid characterization supports remembrance of classical namesand natures for minds that appreciate education.(Suggestion: Peruse the character list or glossary first.)While framed in fantasy, the story depicts practical scenariosthat illustrate such constructive values as mutual helpfulnessand the

I actually read this book when I was much younger, so this review is written through the lens of someone barely out of elementary school. The book was enrapturing and the world was immersive. In Holly I didn't see myself, but rather someone I wanted to be. It was the perfect story and the perfect theme for a Christmas story, and I couldn't have been happier than I was curled up in a chair reading that book around Christmastime. I think it definitely warrants a reread after years of neglect, but

Cute story. Loved the illustrations. The ending couldve used a bit more umph as the solution was a bit simplified but overall a good Christmas story that reads like classic childrens literature.
