As soon as Christmas season begins nothing brings me more joy then watching my children believe in Santa. Their eyes twinkle and open wide when they talk about him and the anticipation of his arrival cannot be matched. Just when you thought you could not get them more excited than they already are, just you wait. “The Magical Tale of Santa Dust” is an enchanting tale of helping Santa find your home. Of course you must fall under the nice not naughty category. Cleverly they have packaged a small red pouch filled with magical Santa Dust. Your children will be delighted at first glance wondering what Santa Dust is going to look like. After reading the endearing story on Christmas Eve (Although you will read it many times before that night), you and your children can go out and leave your own Santa Dust Trail to your home. What a tradition filled with magic and moments you and your child will never forget. 

Although temperatures are warm right now, before you know it, the holiday season will be upon us! In today's fast-paced society, though, the eternal question is, "How do we keep the magical holiday spirit alive?" Well, thanks to author Patricia Cardello, there is a fun and exciting way to do just that! In her book, "The Magical Tale of Santa Dust - A Christmas Tradition," she tells the tale of two young children who eagerly await the arrival of Santa Claus, only to be bypassed by him year after year, because he is unable to find their house. One year, though, they find a little red pouch holding a glass ornament that sparkles with magic. They believe that the ornament will help Santa Claus find them, and are devastated when it breaks, knowing that, once again, there will be no presents for them on Christmas morning. However, the dust that sprinkles out of the broken ornament turns out to be just the thing to lead Santa right to them! With beautiful illustrations by Manuela Soriani, the book itself simply sparkles with Christmas joy. Each book is packaged with a pouch of "Santa Dust," so that young readers can leave their very own trail for Santa to find them. Sure to become an instant holiday tradition, "The Magical Tale of Santa Dust" is a fun and heartwarming way to bring wonder and excitement back to the season. My 5-year-old nephew was instantly enchanted by the book, and immediately asked to read it again once we'd finished...and he can't wait until December 24th to sprinkle his "Santa Dust!" Perfect for any child (or any child at heart!), "The Magical Tale of Santa Dust - A Christmas Tradition" is highly recommended.

“How will Santa know where I live? How will Santa find me?” - a child wonders? The Magical Tale of Santa Dust answers those questions. 

The Magical Tale of Santa Dust is the delightful holiday tale of two small children whose house Santa has never been able to find. It’s Christmas Eve again, and the children fear another year will go by without a visit from Santa. Saved by the antics of a giggling, bungling elf, and some magical dust, their Christmas dreams come true.

Each book will be packaged with one pouch of Santa Dust - a magical potion used by children worldwide to help guide Santa and his reindeer to a child’s door. Santa Dust was launched by Macy’s for their national Believe Christmas campaign. 

The Magical Tale of Santa Dust is not an in-structural book but, similar to The Polar Express, a true Christmas tale that a parent would read to a child on Christmas Eve. They would then sprinkle their magical Santa Dust, sold with each book, leave milk and cookies for Santa and go to sleep hoping that Santa finds them. Patricia hopes The Magical Tale of Santa Dust will establish new Christmas Eve traditions in homes around the world.
