Christopher Kringle was born in New York in 1900, with no idea he was descended from St. Nicholas of Myra – the first “Santa” in history.
As Christopher uncovers his past, he’s pulled into a struggle over hope, generosity, and the very meaning of Christmas.
His choices will change December forever.
Santa’s dad, Luke Kringle, once found an old map of Manhattan. It showed the northern wall of wooden posts called Wall Street — a name that never changed.
The wide road running north to south was Broadway. Still there. Still famous.
Who knew a boy from the Lower East Side would one day change Christmas forever?
Just north of where the old Dutch fort once stood, this neighborhood became home to thousands of immigrant families. The Kringles lived in a tenement on Bayard Street—half a block west of Mulberry. This is where young Christopher learned kindness, and where his story—and Wally’s—truly began.
The Christopher Kringle universe doesn’t end at the last page. Email Santa and get thoughtful, in‑world replies. Read real questions kids have asked over the years.
Watch videos, hear the music,
and feel like you’ve stepped into the North Pole itself.
