Santa’s Secret Society SC – Dynamite Entertainment releases a graphic novel about the power of helping others. Herbert Henry’s father has lost his job, and worse, his Christmas cheer, all less than a week before Christmas. Seeking the kind of help that only Santa can provide, Herbert heads out north to hand-deliver his letter to Santa. Along the way, he helps some busy Elves and a stranded Snow Bear. But when he reaches the House of Claus, he finds chaos abounds. It’s up to the industrious little boy, an only slightly helpful dog, and everyone Herbert helped and befriended on his journey to save Christmas and his father and his home. This story will delight readers of all ages and is a great addition for holiday reading.
