Santa Clause PB

This is a novelization for the movie The Santa Clause and something I like about it is that there are added scenes that were supposed to be in the film, but excluded for one reason or another. It helps flesh the story out and make more sense. Gain a real passage of time as opposed to the film where it seems to fly by. As it is for children, there is a lot of that biting adult humor taken out of it in order to make it safe. So unlike in the movie with the odd swear or off-color jokes that help ground the film and make it feel more relatable to the older members in the audience, this is purely for children which I think makes it lose a bit of the charm the film had. However, this little adaptation of the film is relatively well told, we gain different perspectives outside of the main characters and as I said, we get scenes that weren't in the film and I would pick it up for that alone if you are a fan of the movie.

You should definitely buy this book. I bought a used version from this site and it came quickly and in great shape. This is a great book to read to your kids at bedtime.

If you would like to read a heartwarming, funny, active, and family bonding book, The Santa Clause is your best choice. It made me realize how important family is. Scott Calvin, the main guy, (who is the father of Charlie and the x-husband to Laura Calvin) goes outside, in the snow, on Christmas with his son. They real Santa Clause had fallen off their roof and disappeared with his clothes left behind. Scott was forced to become the new Santa for all the little boys and girls and especially his son. He had to go to the North Pole and everything! In the book, Laura says to Scott, "You have no idea how dangerous this is to make Charlie think your Santa Clause." Nobody, except Charlie, believed him. The boy and his dad were ripped apart. Then by a gracious heart, and a touching ending, you just feel so warm and tingly inside. I most definitely recommend reading this ultimate heartwarming book.

Like the movie this book captures your attention with flying colors. With Tim Allen as Scott. When Scott tries on the suit he does not realize that he has now taken on all duties and full responsibililties to become Santa Clause. After a night of delivering presents he realizes that the reindeer take him to the North Pole. Stuck out in the cold until an elf lets he and his son Charlie into the work shop. After denying that he is not there for a long time he finally goes to bed. The next morning he wakes up and finds that he is in his own bed. He thought that it had all been a dream until he sees his red Pj's that say, S.C ( for Santa Clause ). His son Charlie didn't think it was a dream, he knew it was real. Charlie kept telling people about it, they thought Scott was delusional,and he got his visitation taken away from him. By that time Scott had began to look more like Santa Clause with a big belly and a white beard that he could not get rid of. He had also gotten the lists. He had to go back to the North Pole to get every thing ready. Charlie went with him. But he did not tell his mother he was going. When scott went to deliver presents to Charlie's house he got arrested. The elfs went and broke him out of jail and then he continued delivering presents. Scott's present from Charlie's mom was she burned the visitation papers. She wanted Scott to come vist Charlie when ever he could.
