Santa’s Magic, a collection of 12 short stories is the 2nd novel by author D. A. Quigley. The stories span over 30 years of Santa visits to many cities in the Midwest where the author was a professional sales executive by day and a mythical character for young children at night. The stories will bring back memories in the minds of the reader of their first encounter with Santa Claus and the traditions of the season. Santa’s Magic will show the reader that the magic of Christmas is not restricted to the young and is not always found in a neatly wrapped package under the tree. Dear Santa, What a magical person you are, and your Avi says it all. Your smile is contageous and i can plainly see how you have such a great time playing Santa. I tried to look up your name as i read your story, but all i could see was, Santa. It fits you.:) Your writing is flawless and your story, charming. Many stars are sprinkled on Santa's Magic, and my best wishes for health and happiness in 2013 and always, go out to you and yours.
