Editorial Reviews

PreS-Gr 2—Charming, colorful cartoon illustrations accompany the classic song written by Hal Moore and Bill Fredricks in 1960. Structured as a call-and-response, the first page poses the question, "Who's got a beard that's long and white?" A page turn reveals the answer "Santa's got a beard that's long and white." Some questions and answers are on the same page. After every other verse, the list of features is reiterated, e.g., "Cap on head,/suit that's red./Special night,/beard that's white" followed by the chorus, "Must be Santa!/Must be Santa!/Must be Santa! Santa Claus!" Music is not included. A nice addition for storytime or classroom use.—Diane Olivo-Posner, Los Angeles Public Library
