But finding work is not easy at all, even if you're Santa - he tries being a waiter a party entertainer, and even works in a call centre. He finally finds the perfect job to be useful to the community - the bin man! Santa soon discovers that waste can conceal wonderful gifts, and he is soon back on his sled delivering toys made from recycled materials. But when Santa finds some lost letters from a child in the bin, will he have enough to power his sled to find the little girl before Christmas day Hilarious and heartwarming, Santa Gets a Second Job is the perfect present for Santa fans of all ages from Michele D'Ignazio and Sergio Olivotti.
