Well, this was just a delightful little gem (although I'd say it's a tiny bit slow to start). I love the way Baum explains every part of Santa's magic. ❤❤❤

One of my favorite Christmas specials has always been the Rankin/Bass adaptation of this. It's bonkers, pagan fun. I'm glad to have read the source material, but I'll stick with the claymation.

Enjoyable!
