About This Book

A neglected Santa abandons his Christmas tasks after falling in love with the Fairy Queen, who in turn becomes distracted from ensuring that trees, holly, and turkeys appear for the season. A presidential messenger is transformed into a fairy prince to court her, but he also becomes inattentive. The queen’s attendants stage a series of ruses—a fake telegram, a staged incident, and a rumor of the prince’s death—to awaken her sense of duty. Grief reunites her with Santa, they marry, the seasonal preparations are completed, and Santa departs to deliver gifts while the queen faces the consequences of the deception.
