The Year Santa Took the Toys Back

When Sonny discovers a tool kit from Santa beneath the Christmas tree, he can't wait to start fixing things around the house. He even pretends there are nails sticking out of the wall, just so he can hammer them back in. But Mama doesn't like Sonny hammering on the walls. She says if he doesn't stop, Santa Claus will take the tool kit back. But Santa would never take a kid's Christmas present away…or would he?

This charming tale is based on the author's own family history, now teaching its fourth generation of Cobb children to take care of their toys…or Santa might just take them back. It's sure to become a holiday classic in your family, too.
