This is the Christmas story that all believers have been waiting for, because it answers the question all believing children inevitably ask: 'How does Santa deliver presents all over the world in one night?' Now, for the first time, there's an answer children can believe. Just as the believing world expanded, so did the Santa Claus family.Each year, just before Christmas, new Santas are initiated to run the sleighs and every generation a new North Pole Santa receives his birthright to be the next North Pole Santa. But, now there's a problem. For the first time in the Santa Claus family, the next in line for the birthright is an adopted Athabascan girl, and the Twentieth North Pole Santa's brothers have conspired to prevent her from running a sleigh or becoming the Twenty-First North Pole Santa. This is a story of diversity, gender bias and the relationship of adopted children with their families. It is the evolution of a legend to be shared with believers of all ages.
