When a boy with a two-way radio in the Midwest intercepts Captain McCain's report of dangerous flooding in the North Pole due to unusually warm sea currents, the two join forces in an attempt to rescue Santa and his workshop in time for Christmas.
What a great story. It's wonderful to find holiday treasures that go beyond the norm … and this one does that splendidly. Just know that the story goes well beyond Christmas, and mixes ecology, geography, airships, and hobbies in an engaging way. Both budding hobbyists/scientists and experienced ones will enjoy this story.
