About this audiobook
Santa Claus lives in the Laughing Valley, where stands the big, rambling castle in which his toys are manufactured. His workmen, selected from the ryls, knooks, pixies and fairies, live with him, and every one is as busy as can be from one year's end to another. One would think that our good old Santa Claus, who devotes his days to making children happy, would have no enemies on all the earth; and, as a matter of fact, for a long period of time he encountered nothing but love wherever he might go. Read in English, unabridged.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I love Christmas books and I love Santa Claus. This is a fast read.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5There was no need for Repentance when the other Daemons had no guests, but if one was their "guest" and didn't wish to stay, the only way out of the caves was through Repentance. He was an important part of the ecosystem. Santa was doing such a good job, that he was putting the others out of theirs, which led to their plan.I found it to be an entertaining story. I also enjoyed the quote about bad news. Just think what our news cycles would be like if that was the case. ?
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Cute little bit of fluff. Santa is kidnapped by the Daemons of Selfishness, Envy, Hatred...Everything turns out all right, of course - even the presents get delivered properly (more or less). Cute short piece.
