How Does Santa Go Down the Chimney?
Illustrated by Jon Klassen
A New York Times Bestseller of 2023
★ “Another hilarious hit that will be a welcome addition to the lighter side of Christmas collections.” — School Library Journal, Starred Review
★ “Fantastic ideas bubble forth.” — Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
★ “The question of how roly-poly Santa can squeeze himself down any chimney, and even insinuate himself into spaces that have no chimney, is quite a stumper. But this mystery is tackled head-on (and hilariously) by the multi-award-winning team of Barnett and Klassen.” — Booklist, Starred Review
“A genial and witty picture book.”
—The Wall Street Journal
“ Barnett’s text expertly speculates as a child might, with ideas ranging from the logical to the playful…Theorizing is more entertaining than discovering an answer would be—the magic is in the mystery, after all, including the mystery of how Santa gets back up the chimney.” —Horn Book Reviews
