The Man in the Cinder Clouds ReviewTHE MAN IN THE CINDER CLOUDS is one of those middle grade books that the grown-ups get sucked into along with their kids. You think you bought if for your young reader but after you browse chapter one you just sort of... can't stop.
For the kids: The story starts with an adventure gone dreadfully boring as a boy accompanies his dad on an expedition to the North Pole. He discovers that the exotic location can't overcome the drudgery of hanging out with scientists for a few weeks, even if Santa Claus is reputed to live somewhere nearby. The scientists make a discovery in the ice, though, that captures not only Jason's imagination but everyone else's. For one thing, not even the scientists can figure out why the book they've found appears to each person in his native language.
If the book they've uncovered is what it seems, it tells the tale of how Santa Claus came to be the figure we all know today. The traditions and images we associate with Santa are all rooted in his first Christmas venture to find one example of goodness in humanity. He fulfills his own quest while helping a brother and sister who desperately need an ally.
For the grown-ups: THE MAN IN THE CINDER CLOUDS is intricate, with two stories unfolding together as Jason discovers the history of Santa Claus and the children in the Santa story overcome their own hardship by taking care of each other. It's also funny, with humor and references the kids will get but doesn't rely on lowbrow jokes that an older reader would just find silly. The wit shines through in chapter one and the story carries you right through to the end.
I'm going to recommend this one to my school librarian as well as my kid's teachers. Charming, satisfying, warm, and plain old fun to read.The Man in the Cinder Clouds OverviewThe freezing temperature is the only thing cool about Jason's trip to the North Pole, but things heat up when his father discovers a book buried deep in the ice.This is no ordinary book, mind you. For starters, it was written by an Elf. And if that's not enough, the book proves the existence of Kris Kringle-you know, Santa Claus.Born human but abandoned as a baby, Kris is rescued by Elfs and grows up among them'but he doesn't really fit in. Kris embarks on a quest to find his true family among the humans by delivering presents on Christmas day. But there's a catch: the High Council of Elfs is convinced humans are wicked at heart, and Kris can't return to his Elfin home unless he can prove otherwise. His journey takes him all the way to the legendary Great Northern Glen, and from there to the town of Oldenton, where he finds two orphans who are about to lose everything they have to a greedy uncle.With only days before Christmas, Kris must try to help the kids, deliver his presents, find his family, and prove that human virtue does exist'even in the most unexpected of human hearts.
