This book was a free download to Minerva (My Kindle), and I downloaded it because:a) I enjoy reading holiday stories this time of year, andb) it was freeIt was a very quick read, sweet and touching at times while being honest about everything from being wet on to stories of heartbreak. Written in a sort of journal/diary format, some of the "tales" seemed entirely too brief and left me wanting just a bit more description of sights, sounds, smells, etc. In other words, the stories are charming but it's light reading.I'd recommend it to anyone as a 99 cent kindle purchase, but honestly, not much more than that. This book is a series of too-short little observations from the author's weeks as a mall Santa. While some of them are touching, most just come across with an air of judgment and superiority -- something I see more than enough of on a daily basis and don't need from someone claiming to represent a symbol of love or hope. Mr. Scott seems a bit too sheltered and uptight to make a living interacting with the public.

Simple, cute and free read on kindle to pass some travel time. It had some good one-liners.

Short, cute book of stories with a mall Santa. Some are hilarious, some tear jerkers.
