PRAISE FOR The Day Santa Stopped Believing in Harold:
“An amusing story with the welcome inclusion of a multiracial
family.” --Kirkus Reviews
“A fun story and a great antidote to holiday skepticism.” --School
Library Journal
"...deliciously fun." --Publishers Weekly
“This clever and funny book laced with slapstick elements flips a
regular holiday story on its head. Santa proves a natural in his
role as a skeptical detective, equal parts curmudgeonly and
cuddly.” --Quill and Quire
“The artwork by Cale Atkinson is perfectly suited for the story -
with its bright and overstuffed illustrations. While definitely
evoking Christmas colours and themes, it never feels overdone.
Atkinson also does great work capturing the facial expressions of
all the characters.” --CM Magazine
“Relatable and entertaining, this tongue-in-cheek picture book
turns a child’s inevitable disbelief of Santa Claus on its head.”
--Booklist
“What kids will like: This extremely clever twist on “Is there
really a Santa Claus?” anxiety will provoke jelly-belly laughs from
kids and adults alike.” --USA Today
“Good reading skills will lend appreciation to this story of a
flummoxed Santa.” --Midwest Book Review
