Santa must use his construction vehicles and crew to save Christmas in this delightful and festive new picture book for families to enjoy reading each holiday season.

After a storm hits the North Pole right before Christmas, it's up to Santa, Mrs. Claus, and a jolly crew of reindeer and elves to rebuild the workshop. With no building materials and only a day left before Christmas, they have to be creative and quick. The Clauses, the elves, the reindeer, and a surprise guest all work together to get the job done with an assortment of Christmasy construction vehicles! But can they save Christmas? Or will they end up out in the cold?

Christmas Under Construction puts a building twist on the traditional Christmas book, bringing construction to the North Pole.
