Synopsis "Secrets of the Sneaky Santa Claus: {Christkindl, Kriss Kringle & the Origins of Santa Claus} (in English)"
Ever wondered why Santa Claus, being male, is called by a female Saint (Santa) & not Santo (male)? The reason being is that earlier versions of "Santa Claus" are blond hair females! Just like in the Strand Magazine, Jan. 1891, showing a blond female "Santa Claus" holding a Christmas tree, descending down through the woods to a town below. This short historical poem, answers these questions & explores the history & origins of earlier versions of Santa Claus, Kriss Kringle & the German name for the wandering Christ-child, Christkindl, German for wandering Christ-child. This edition is the 1st black & white illustrated for Christmas reads, 12-25-2015, first edition. There is also a color illustrated editions on line too. I hope the readers, old & young will enjoy learning more about Christmas lore, customs & earlier versions of Santa Claus. Thus, the historical poem with research, bibliography & end notes to learn from: "Secrets of the Sneaky Santa Claus".
