Orillia, Ontario, Canada - January 2, 2025 - Wendy MacLean announces the release of her new heartwarming children's book, Santa Also Forgets (9781834184586; released December 19, 2025 by Tellwell Publishing). At its core, Santa Also Forgets is a story about responsibility, courage, and the lasting power of caring for others.

The book has already received early praise, including a 5-star rating and thoughtful review from Readers' Favorite, which noted the story is "built around humor, warmth, and relatable holiday moments." It also received a glowing review from Kiddable Magazine, which called it a holiday story that "captures the quiet magic of childhood, the importance of intuition, and the reassurance that even Santa isn't perfect."

Based on true events, the story is grounded in authenticity and emotional honesty. Wendy MacLean draws from real-life inspiration to create a narrative that feels both imaginative and deeply relatable, resonating with children and adults alike.

MacLean notes that one of her proudest moments in the book is the scene where Lolo suddenly realizes she forgot the hat and urgently yells for the car to stop. It's a pivotal moment that captures a child's clarity and bravery, highlighting the importance of speaking up when something feels wrong. Another standout moment is Lolo's imaginative vision of being carried by Santa himself, who praises her for doing the right thing. This sequence beautifully reflects a child's inner world, where imagination, reassurance, and wonder come together.

The story's ending delivers a playful and memorable twist with the unexpected reveal of a baseball cap left behind. This final detail adds warmth and humor, reinforcing the book's message that perfection isn't required-thoughtfulness and intention are what truly matter.

Perfect for families, classrooms, and anyone who believes in kindness beyond the holidays, Santa Also Forgets encourages readers to carry the spirit of Christmas with them throughout the year. Through Lolo's journey, Wendy MacLean reminds us that doing the right thing has no season, and that listening to our intuition can lead to meaningful change.
