You've Read the Letters.
Now Write One!

No need to address it to the North Pole this time. If Dear Santa made you laugh, smile or question what exactly children think Santa's job description includes, we'd love an honest review.

Help Put "Dear Santa, Letters to emailSanta.com" on the Nice List

Reviews help other readers discover Dear Santa, Letters to emailSanta.com. They also reassure people that, yes, there really is an entire book filled with the wonderfully funny things children have actually written to Santa.

Santa's only rule: please leave an honest review. Five stars are lovely. So are four, three, two or one if that's genuinely what you think. Santa has enough trouble deciding who's naughty and nice without asking us to judge your review.

Bought it somewhere else?

Your Favourite Bookstore

If you bought Dear Santa from another online or brick & mortarbook seller, check the book's product page there too.

If there's a Write a Review, Rate This Book or suspiciously star-shaped collection of buttons, you've probably found the right place.

Reviews on the store where you actually bought the book can be particularly useful to the people shopping there.

"But What Do I Write?"

Fortunately, your review doesn't need 1,000 letters. The kids already took care of that part.

A few sentences are plenty. You might mention:

  • Who you think would enjoy the book.
  • Whether it made you laugh, smile or read passages aloud.
  • Your favourite type of letter or age group.
  • Whether you bought it for yourself or as a Christmas gift.
  • What surprised you about the real letters kids sent Santa.
For example:

"I bought this as a Christmas gift and made the mistake of opening it first. I ended up reading letters aloud to everyone in the room. Funny, sweet and sometimes completely unexpected."

That's only an example — please use your own words. Santa has a very good plagiarism detector. His name is Bernard.

Thank You!

Every honest review helps another reader find the book.

For a small book made from children's very big thoughts, that means a lot.

And unlike Santa, we don't require milk and cookies.
