Product Description
The multi-award-winning duo of Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen tackle a perennial question: how does Santa go down the chimney?
When Santa arrives at a child’s house on Christmas Eve, does he go down the chimney feetfirst or headfirst? What if he gets stuck? What if there’s no chimney? Maybe he slides under the door, as thin as a piece of paper? Or is it possible he pours himself through the tap? What happens once he’s inside?
Mac Barnett’s iconic talent for earnest deadpan humour and Jon Klassen’s irresistibly funny art honour this timeless question with answers both ridiculous and plausible, mounting in hilarity as the night continues. Channeling a child’s fanciful explanations, this latest collaboration by a bestselling team will find a secure spot among family Christmas traditions.

Have you ever wondered how Santa fits down the chimney? In this comedic story, Mac Barnett ponders all the ways Santa could fit down the chimney. Does he turn into jelly? Does he fold himself into an envelope and slide under the door? Does he go head-first or feet-first? Does he bring treats for the dogs or night-vision goggles? Even though we will never know, as the story says, we're glad he can. A thought-provoking read filled with great questions and hilarious illustrations.
