Santa in the City

This book was great and we even read it after Christmas. Santa in the City was a book about a girl who was worried that Santa wouldn’t make it to her because of where she lived. She had all these questions and asked her family so many questions about Santa. One night she went to sleep and woke up to see that Santa did exist and he would make it to her.

I liked that there were so many Black characters in this book. Santa was Black, the people in the girl’s family were Black––there were lots of Black characters. It was also cool to hear all the creative stories her family told her to explain why Santa was real. She had so many questions burning in her mind that needed to be answered.
