It was the first book in Disney's A True-Life Adventure series, written by Jane Werner (Watson) and the staff of Walt Disney Studios. #childrensbooks #childrensbookillustration #littlegoldenbooks #santaclaus #corrinemalvern #janewerner Illustrations by Corrine Malvern from “Uncle Mistletoe” told by Jane Werner, 1953 There’s a song, there was even a TV show, and of course there are collectibles to seek out. But the character of Uncle Mistletoe was actually created by Marshall Fields department store, similar to Rudolph for Montgomery Ward. The children get a tour, cookies, a party with the toys at The Cozy Cloud Cafe, more cookies, and eventually a ride back home with Santa himself. Uncle Mistletoe helps Santa in the office, record keeping and such. Peter and Bets, along with Tony Pony, go to visit Santa Claus at Cozy Cloud Cottage where they encounter Uncle Mistletoe and Aunt Holly. I’ve had this book forever, but until very recently didn’t realize that it was anything more than a story made up for Little Golden Books.
