A City Full of Santas cover

From the New York Times bestselling author of Eyes that Kiss in the Corners, Joanna Ho, comes a fun and festive holiday story about a little girl’s enthusiastic hunt for the real Santa in a city that’s bustling with joy.

One little girl has always hoped to stay awake long enough to meet Santa, and she knows this is her year. She just knows Santa smells like peppermint and laughs like the sun clapping its hands. When Mama takes her on a special journey to the city, they discover Santas ho-ho-ho-ing about everywhere, making it so much harder to find the real one. The little girl is sure she knows just what she’s looking for, but will she find Santa in time for Christmas? 

From award-winning author Joanna Ho and acclaimed artist Thai Phuong, comes a whimsical tale about the true magic of the season.

"A warm Christmas story with a heart full of glitter." — Kirkus Reviews "This title is a fun, fresh take on a familiar holiday dilemma... Ho’s lyricism shines in this buoyant holiday picture book, and Phuong captures the emotional ebbs and flows of the young protagonist while peppering the illustrations with sparkling holiday magic. A fine addition to Christmas collections." — School Library Journal
