Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth Fairy and Jesus

Title: SANTA CLAUS, THE EASTER BUNNY, THE TOOTH FAIRY AND JESUS
Author: David Vaughan Parry, Sr.
Publisher: Holy Fire Publishing
2007
ISBN: 978-1-60383-046-1
Genre: Inspirational/nonfiction

True or false:

Santa really lives at the North pole and drives a sled pulled by nine reindeer.
The Easter bunny hides all the eggs and has a basket factory.
The Tooth Fairy sells children’s teeth on the black market.
Jesus really raised from the dead.

In SANTA CLAUS, THE EASTER BUNNY, THE TOOTH FAIRY AND JESUS, Mr. Parry takes a look at each individual legend, telling the basic, simple version of their stories, and then taking a look at each of them logically.

This short book is very easy to read in one setting. There is a sarcastic edge in the taking a look at them logically section, which is kind of cute. The author maintains that SANTA CLAUS, THE EASTER BUNNY, THE TOOTH FAIRY AND JESUS is written for those who want to put the four in the same box—a mythical creatures that really don’t exist, to prove that out of the four, Jesus is real. I’m not really sure how it would work to convince someone who doesn’t believe, but to me it seems quite logically thought out and well-written. If you know someone who believes Jesus is a myth and is waiting for you to wake up and smell the coffee, maybe this would be a good book to slip in their to-be-read pile. It’s cover is cute and attention grabbing, there are several humorous cartoons included, and it’s gripping. 58 pages.
