But What If There's No Chimney?

A “delightful story” about a five-year-old’s first Christmas in a new house (Alona Frankel).

Five-year-old Ben has moved into a new home with his father. But there’s no chimney! How is Santa going to get in when Christmas comes? Ben asks his dad, his friend, his teacher, his mailman, and even his dog, but no one has a good answer. So he’ll just have to write a letter to Santa Claus, Indiana . . .

Inspired by a real town (kids can write to Santa and the elves at P.O. Box 1, Santa Claus, Indiana 47579), this lively storybook also includes appearances by Checkermint the elf, adding extra fun for young readers who can try to spot Checkermint’s many hiding places.
