Pookie Believes in Santa Claus by Ivy Wallace
Pookie, the little white rabbit with wings, first published in 1945, is a classic, endearing character and HarperCollins is delighted to be bringing him to their list. Christmas is coming but Pookie is worried about whether there is a real Santa Claus or not. Always eager to find out the truth, Pookie stays up all night on Christmas Eve and is rewarded when he hears the faint tinkle of sledge bells. Pookie is so excited about seeing Santa Claus that he wakes up all the woodland folk to tell them, but nobody believes him. The only way they will believe him is to meet him themselves...This is sure to be the most magical Christmas ever. AGE 4-7 as well as adults who remember Pookie from their own childhoods.
