I found this book on a bargin table about 1975. I read this book to my children every year. Silver Spurs visited our front porch and put a special suprise and a Santa Key in their shoes. Then I became a teacher of young children. Silver Spurs visited our classroom and left a surprise and a Santa key in every shoe. Now, I am a grandmother and the tradition has been carried on. I love this book and treasure what it has brought to the lives of not only my children and grandchildren but, the hundreds of children that I have taught and will continue to teach a little longer. I hope that the Knigge children and grandchildren know the joy this book has brought.

This book was my all time favorite book as a child, and still is to this day. My mother kept the book, but since I have a sister we wanted two so we could pass the tradition of reading this book around the holidays on to our children. I am so thankful that I was able to find another copy. My son will grow up reading this book and I know he will love it as much as I do. This book is a must for all children!

A Childhood Favorite NEVER Forgotten! October 6, 2006

This is one of my all time favorite books. This book has a very special place in my heart. Growing up in apartments and homes without fireplaces, I always wondered how the big guy got in. My grandmother was the town librarian, and she brought this magical book home to me one holiday time, and it was wonderful! From that year on, until I was probably in high school I took the book out at Christmas time, until sadly, it was removed from circulation at the library.
I have spent many years, looking for a copy of it. I am so pleased to see so many other folks that loved this book to!!

I agree with other reviews... this is one of the most special books ever.... this story hit the AP wire in 1974 and was published a year later. Knigge had a float in the Gimbels Thankgiving parade celebrating the character. He donated thousands of copies to libraries. The illustrations are remarkable... the pages are wax coated and crayon proof.... the cover is fire retardant and tear resistant... These books look as good today as they did out of print. No yellowing or fading. My father, the author, would be so proud to know that 20 years after his passing, people would still be writing reviews, exchanging copies, and including it in their Christmas tradition. He most of all wanted this story to endure and indeed it has as long as even one of us continues to read it. Thanks - Paul Knigge.
Make Memories Now! November 1, 2005

All the movies show santa coming down the chimney and delivering gifts. As a child I found this so confusing since santa always arrived even though we did not have a fireplace with chimney. This book solves the mystery and now I am reading it to my Grandchildren and to the delight of their teachers as well. You only have one life to live make sure yours is full of wonderful memories to share. I highly recommend this book, the illustrations and very detailed and the book flows freely in the mind of the listener as well as the reader. Happy Holidays!
