Alexandra, Dutch Angel
Item # 11518 Children everywhere enjoy books and stories but never so much as before Christmas. In churches, communities, schools and homes, but children feel the magic and excitement of Christmas with every page that is turned and every sentence read in hushed, mysterious tones by an angel. Alexandra performs a Christmas task that is so popular with not only Dutch children all over the world – that of reading Christmas stories. In this case, Alexandra reads a book about Sinter Klaas, the Dutch Santa who visits children in Holland on the much-anticipated St. Nicholas Day, December 6th. When the Dutch emigrated to the New World and settled in New Amsterdam, now called Manhattan, they brought their love of stories and Sinter Klaas with them. Eventually, due to mispronunciation, "Sinter Klaas" became "Santa Claus" and an American tradition was born.
