Illustrated by T. L. McBeth
Look inside
The perfect book for Christmas story time!

A hilariously clever picture book about a man with a white beard and a red hat who, despite all evidence to the contrary, insists that he is NOT Santa Claus. Perfect for fans of How to Catch Santa Claus, How to Catch a Reindeer, and How to Catch an Elf!

"A genuinely jolly Christmas choice." -- Kirkus reviews


Everyone, look! It's Santa Claus!

He says he’s just a regular old man, but he has a fluffy white beard and a red coat and hat, and even says "Ho ho ho"! He must be Santa Claus! Right?

Step inside and find out for yourself! Is this the REAL Santa Claus?

From T. L. McBeth comes a silly and clever picture book that is the perfect gift or stocking stuffer for Christmas!

Praise for I Am Not Santa Claus:

"Kids will enjoy this drily witty and original twist on Christmas. A genuinely jolly Christmas choice."--Kirkus reviews

"Kids will enjoy this drily witty and original twist on Christmas. They’ll likely have already realized from the outset that, of course, this Santa’s real; they’ll feel vindicated by the conclusion. The humorous, thick-lined digital illustrations feature wide-eyed, racially diverse characters. A genuinely jolly Christmas choice." -- Kirkus reviews
