'Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?' On September 21, 1897, the minds and hearts of two people met and in that meeting created magic that has survived more than a century. Virginia O'Hanlon's earnest question set New York Sun editor Francis Pharcellus Church to writing. Church's reply, a testimony to the existence of Santa Claus, on the marvels of the unseen but very real world of wonder, are now a part of Christmas lore. This edition offers a translation into Latin of the text of Church's well-known editorial. The Latin text is handsomely scripted and charmingly illustrated. * New Latin translation, in ornate script with decorated capitals * All new, full-color, charming illustrations for the Latin text * English text on dual-language (English-Latin) pages in easy-to-read type, to aid translation of Latin * Full Latin-English glossary with 'Christmas Memories' journal pages Also Tonight They All 92 Latin & English Haiku - ISBN 0865164401 Arbor Alma/the Giving Tree - ISBN 0865164991 For over 30 years Bolchazy-Carducci Publishers has produced the highest quality Latin and ancient Greek books.
