Summary
Join one Black family on their journey to discover what the real Santa looks like in this joyous tale celebrating identity, family, and holiday cheer, from the New York Times best-selling author of Bedtime Bonnet.
It’s not Christmas without Santa! But what does Santa truly look like? Does he match the figurines on the mantel or the faces on our favorite holiday sweaters? Does he look like you or like me?
Find out in this joyous and cozy celebration of family, representation, and holiday spirit! Destined to be a new classic, and perfect for children looking to see some of themselves in Santa Claus.

"Redd’s representation of a Black family during the holidays radiates pride in self-identity, while Barlow’s cozy mixed-media illustrations conjure the wonder of the season in this welcome, resonant tale." —Publishers Weekly, starred review
"...Lovingly depicts the family engaging in holiday traditions and routines like braiding hair before bed. A warm tale for Kingle-curious kids." —Booklist
