Where’s Santa? In Australia – Louis Shea



Beginning with a fun cartoon-panel story, this book tells the story of Santa, who is catching up with his Australian cousin Barry before heading out on his Christmas run. But when Barry’s grandkids Kylie and Jason get themselves into a little bit of strife, it’s up to Santa and Barry to rescue them! Working through the book (and each state and territory of Australia), children are invited to search for them and plenty of other Australian characters and items in each scene. In a similar vein to Where’s Wally, this book will provide hours of searching fun as children look for items and read the conclusion to the story.
