Felix's Christmas Around the World by Annette Langen illustrated by Constanza Droop

Felix, Sophie's stuffed rabbit, communicates to her via letters.  In this story boys in her class are making fun of her because she still believes in Santa.  Felix sets off to the North Pole to prove Santa is real.  He shares his adventures with Santa by writing letters to Sophie.  Included are envelopes with Felix's letters.  It is fun to remove them.
I thought the text was a bit long and drawn out . . .my boys enjoy long books and have great attention spans but this one did not capture their attention like most books do.
Points to discuss: belief in Santa-depending on family's view, kids making fun of belief in Santa
