Santa’s New Helpers is the first in a delightful series of children’s books, called “Tales from the Waterhole”, written by Max Hoppe and illustrated by Theresa Hardman.

It tells what happens when Santa is stuck in the African bush, with exhausted reindeer and lots of gifts still to deliver! – Warthogs step in to save the day.

There are useful pages in the back, with photos of African animals, and place where kids can tick off when they see them in real life.
