A Santa for Everyone, written and illustrated by Nicole Kimball Ostrowksi, shares a beautiful message about acceptance and unity. Children often wonder how Santa can appear or be portrayed in different ways. Santa explains how he may have light or dark skin, many colors of wardrobe, and various hairstyles because he represents children of all cultures around the world. Bright, colorful, and cheerful illustrations accompany this heartwarming story. Young readers will be captivated as they see Santa with his beard, dressed in red and white, or sometimes with dark hair, dressed in blue. The original St. Nicholas is highlighted in a gorgeous green and gold robe. Children will learn that Santa can speak all languages because he exists to bring joy to all children everywhere.

A Santa for Everyone is a delightful story for the holiday season as well as all year round. This uplifting tale will likely spark meaningful conversations about different cultures and how Santa happily spreads good cheer to children all over the world. Children will be excited to see that Santa may look like them and always understands them. Engaging and light-hearted rhymes make this a fun read-aloud that teachers, families, and caregivers will enjoy reading again and again. Young readers will be entertained by the jolly escapades Santa takes to ensure gifts are delivered to all at Christmas time. Nicole Kimball Ostrowski captures the exuberance and magic of Santa and his ability to unite people all across the globe with a spirit of kindness and goodwill.
