Story Behind The Book

As a child I loved the story, Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer and wondered why Santa and Mrs. Claus never had children. I thought that a Santa child would be a good way to bring new life to the Santa Story. Thus the story Santa Boy began and evolved over thirty-five years! Since there was a song for Rudolph, I wrote one that follows the story line for Santa Boy. Upon becoming a grandfather I dug out my treasured manuscript, and with the help of my daughter, Caroline, who enjoyed the story when she was a child, revived it. My daughter Christine sings the Santa Boy song.
