I received this as a gift last Christmas, but I haven't read it yet. The condition is excellent. It also comes with a poster. This is a town where 100 Santa Clauses live. There are 100 different Santa Clauses. Did you know that the Santa Clauses spend a year preparing for a special day, "Christmas"? They make maps of the houses to deliver presents, grow Christmas trees, vegetables, and fruits, and practice creating a beautiful starry sky. They are all very busy. The most challenging task is preparing the presents! They carry toys, wrap them, and put ribbons on them. And finally, Christmas, which everyone is looking forward to. It's the same for the Santa Clauses, who have such a difficult job ahead of them. Why? Because there's something the Santa Clauses look forward to after they finish delivering presents! This is a picture book that children love about Santa Clauses. Everyone will be thrilled to see 100 Santa Clauses with unique personalities and lots of charm. The houses and clothes of the Santa Clauses are surprisingly cute!! The author, Tomonori Taniguchi, is active not only in Japan but also in France, Italy, and other countries. His adorable characters, warm colors, and the atmosphere that makes you want to step into the picture book are very attractive. This is a book I recommend as a Christmas gift.
