Happy Holidays - A Santa Special!

Happy Holidays!

What better way to get into the holiday spirt than snuggling down with a book before your long winter's nap! And what better holiday books than L. Frank Baum's Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, beautifully illustrated by Eric Shanower.

And then setting sail with Ruth Plumly Thompson for her cozy holiday tale The Curious Cruise of Captain Santa illustrated by John R. Neill.

And until Christmas day 2025, you can order both books together at a special reduced price of 20% off.

The perfect gift to yourself, or more importantly, a gift to a young friend who has yet to read these two holiday treasures.

The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus

What could be better than a biography of Santa Claus written by L. Frank Baum, author of The Wizard of Oz! Did you ever wonder how Santa Claus came to be? Where the first Christmas tree came from? How Santa carved the very first toy? Every answer is here!

This beautiful new paperback edition of the timeless Christmas classic includes Baum’s charming sequel story “A Kidnapped Santa Claus,” presenting Santa’s entire merry history.

Award-winning illustrator Eric Shanower brings Santa’s story to life in twelve lovely full-color full-page paintings in this delightful new edition. Specially redesigned for this new Hungry Tiger Press edition, the handsome volume features light green paper, colorful chapter headings, and several brand new illustrations – 171 pages!

Illustrator Eric Shanower will sign each copy ordered through Hungry Tiger Press. If you would like a personalized inscription, please specify it in the Notes section during Checkout.

The Curious Cruise of Captain Santa

This black-and-white facsimile edition was published in 1985 by The International Wizard of Oz Club and features a new foreword by Douglas G. Greene. Hungry Tiger Press has secured all of the remaining copies, and we are delighted to offer this charming holiday book to a new and wider audience.

The Curious Cruise of Captain Santa, a work first published in 1926, contains some racial and ethnic references that may be offensive to modern readers. Readers should be aware, however, that these do not reflect the attitudes of Hungry Tiger Press and that they merely reflect the language, and its usage, of the early twentieth century.

Dracula's Guest and Other Deadly Tales

Come sink your fangs into our latest release, Dracula's Guest and Other Deadly Tales, a new collection of five terrifying tales by Bram Stoker, author of Dracula— illustrated with over forty creepy and intricate pen-and-ink illustrations by Eric Shanower.

A mother’s fury erupts in grisly revenge in “The Squaw.” Weird rites cling to a scene of notorious murder in Stoker’s recently rediscovered tale “Gibbet Hill.” What’s that scratching inside the walls of “The Judge’s House”? Silent jealousy lurks behind the scenes while death takes center stage in “A Star Trap.” And in the title story, “Dracula’s Guest,” unsuspecting Jonathan Harker suffers a foretaste of vampiric terror. Soaked in blood and feeding on fright, these tales beg to be read alone and late at night.

Every copy ordered directly from us will be signed by the illustrator.
