  • “Creative and inspiring … no sap, no nonsense — just good plain fun letters with Santa by a six-year-old. [The] questions are just what a kid would ask … and [they’re] answered with simplicity, heart, and good cheer. Well done.” — Zinziber Tea, Amazon customer
  • “This is a perfect Christmas book for children that still believe in the magic of Santa Claus. What young child wouldn’t want to have Santa Claus for a pen pal?” — “Interesting Coffee Table Books,” Hub Pages
  • “An unusual seasonal offering that families seeking an alternative to typical Christmas books will find attractive as the holiday draws near.” — The Infodad Team, Infodad.com
  • “In this charming book Santa fans will learn a great deal about the man who brings joy to so many children. It is interesting to see how he interacts with his little pen pal, and young readers will be delighted to read the letters Santa and Ava write and to see the how their story ends.” — Marya Jansen-Gruber, Through the Looking Glass Children’s Book Reviews
  • “My granddaughter loves this book! She has me read it to her over and over. I like that it covers the whole year from one Christmas to the next with lots of questions every child would want to ask Santa. My granddaughter really likes knowing what Santa is doing each month. A wonderful book year round!” — Claire F., Amazon customer
  • “Get this beautiful book to share with your child or grandchild while they still believe in the magic of Santa Claus. While My Pen Pal, Santa is likely to become a Christmas classic, the window of opportunity for you to share this wonderful story with a child you love is very, very short. Don’t let this Christmas go by without engaging your special child in this story.” — R.G., Amazon customer
  • “We should all get this book, My Pen Pal, Santa, illustrated by the talented Jenny Bell! Can you imagine a cuter Christmas present.” — Amy Shearn, novelist, The Mermaid of Brooklyn, Household Words
  • “Clearly an American book, marking Stateside celebrations such as Independence Day and Thanksgiving, it’s just cute enough to go down well with British children and will be a useful prompt post-Christmas to write thank-you letters of their own.” — Debbie Young, Today’s Child Magazine: London
