Book Reviews of How Mrs. Claus Saved Christmas
Book Review: A Delightful Take on Christmas Traditions
Summary: 4 Stars
My daughter gave me this book a few months ago, and I have really enjoyed reading How Mrs. Claus Saved Christmas. I had not read the previous book about Santa Claus, but I will very soon. This book not only offers an intriguing story, but ties in historical facts and characters at the same time giving the reader a sense that it really did happen the way Mrs. Clause tells the story.
The characters seem true to life and the story follows a timeline as Mrs. Claus tells her listeners how she met her future husband and how they joined forces to provide gifts to needy children. This book may even inspire people to share what they have with those who are in need. At the same time, it can give you a smile with stories Mrs. Claus shares. Although this book is more relevant to read around the Christmas holiday, it can be enjoyed any time of year.

Summary of How Mrs. Claus Saved Christmas
In this delightful Christmas Chronicles tale, the first lady of Christmas herself tells the story of how she and a very brave group of people once saved a treasured holiday from being lost forever. It's 1620, and Mrs Claus' dear husband is off in the New World, planting the seeds for what will become a glorious Christmas tradition. Meanwhile, Mrs Claus has chosen to stay in England, where the first signs of a dangerous threat to Yuletide cheer are in evidence. The Puritans have gained control of Parliament and appear determined to take all the joy out of Christmas. But Mrs Claus knows that it's time for serious action when, in 1647, a law is passed by Parliament that actually punishes anyone who celebrates Christmas. Based on the actual events of a day in 1647, when ten thousand peasants marched through the streets of Canterbury demanding their right to celebrate a beloved holiday, "How Mrs Claus Saved Christmas" is rich in historical detail, adventure and plain ol' Christmas fun.World Books
