ADVENTRIVIA

Ho ho ho! My dearest friend!

Yawns and stretches

I hope you'll forgive me for being brief — the workshop is wonderfully quiet after the whirlwind of December, and I'm enjoying a well-deserved rest by the fire with a mug of cocoa and Rudolph snoring at my feet.

Mrs. Claus has already started plotting this year's quiz questions, and between you and me, she's got that mischievous twinkle in her eye that means she's cooking up something particularly fiendish.

Pop back when December rolls around and we'll have another magnificent month of merriment together. Until then, stay curious, stay kind, and don't forget to write!

Warmest winter wishes,

Santa Claus

P.S. The elves say hello. Well, Konnal does. The others are still recovering.
