After the Ice Melts: A Christmas Story

By E. Draper

Santa Claus turns up missing after the ice sheet at the North Pole melts, prompting an amusing team of climate scientists into action-including a talking dog and a soggy elf. The sleuths battle greedy corporatists and an evil robot as they search the globe to find Santa and save Christmas.

After the Ice Melts responds to the global climate change quandary with fantasy and fun. The eco-friendly adventure introduces unforgettable characters like Santa's go-to fixer, Soggy Elf, and the villainous Mr. Pollutey, as well as loveable climate scientists like Flora Fauna and Randolph Tailwaggle. All bring awareness and humor to climate crisis issues and possible resolves.

Santa Claus needs our help

More than an environmental comedy, After the Ice Melts is a paradigm-shifting, year-round Christmas story. If anyone doubts there's a climate emergency, just ask Santa Claus, Missus Claus, Rudolph, and the toyshop elves.

With rapidly melting ice in the Arctic, the North Pole has become unstable for toy making. Without a positive reversal, what will happen to Santa's crew and the whole of Christmas Village?

In fiction and reality, Santa is the best-known victim of climate dislocation. It's time to join forces to save Santa, Christmas Village, and all the creatures of Earth.

A fun read for sure, but the serious message raises the stakes for climate deniers. "Today, we understand that climate change is real - a real crisis, even for modern-day heroes and legends."
