As Santa himself relates in this delightful holiday read, the trouble began in 1841, when a Philadelphia merchant named J.W. Parkinson hired a neighbor to dress as Kris Kringle in order to lure shoppers into his dry-goods store. Much to Santa's chagrin, it's been pretty much downhill since. It seems everybody wants a piece of Christmas, and through the years, it has gotten worse--to the point that not a Christmas can go by without phony Santas posing on street corners across the country. But when, in 2006, it's announced that a new reality TV show called The Great Santa Search will feature a competition to find the \"real\" St. Nicholas, Santa knows it's time to step in! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith all the rich historical detail and glorious Christmas cheer that made \u003cb\u003eThe Autobiography of Santa Claus \u003c\/b\u003eand\u003cb\u003e How Mrs. Claus Saved Christmas\u003c\/b\u003e treasured family favorites, \u003ci\u003eThe Great Santa Search \u003c\/i\u003eis destined to become yet another Christmas classic from Jeff Guinn.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJeff Guinn\u003c\/b\u003e is books editor at the Fort \u003ci\u003eWorth Star-Telegram\u003c\/i\u003e.
