This is a story about a little boy who lives above a convenience store with his mom. When he goes to spend his pocket money on candy—only when Mom’s not looking—he gives the knot on the clothesline by the outdoor stairs a good yank (it makes the best sound). One day, he tugs a little too hard, and takes the stairs a little too fast, and—whiiiiiz!—gets stuck hanging smack in the middle of the clothesline. He cries for help, but Mom doesn’t hear. He waits for someone to save him, but only a black cat slinks by. His arm gets tired—but if he hangs on with both hands, he’ll risk dropping his coins! It’s a true dilemma. Finally, he cries out so loudly that he tumbles to the ground. He still spends his pocket money on candy. But he NEVER touches the clothesline again. Told in sequential illustrations with simple text and vibrant sound effects, this is a suspenseful narrative offering an accessible entry point to early graphic novels and a lighthearted, laugh-out-loud reminder of the consequences of our choices.

See below for English description. Mac Barnett et Jon Klassen, duo adulé et maintes fois primé, abordent la question que tout le monde se pose : comment fait le père Noël pour passer par la cheminée? Lorsque le père Noël arrive chez un enfant, la veille de Noël, descendil par la cheminée la tête première, ou les pieds d'abord? Et s'il reste coincé? Et s'il n'y a pas de cheminée? Peut-être se glisse-t-il sous la porte, en se faisant aussi mince qu'une enveloppe? Serait-ce possible qu'il se faufile dans les tuyaux et passe par le robinet? Et une fois à l'intérieur, que se passe-t-il? Préparez-vous à des explications à la fois loufoques, plausibles et fantaisistes, qui ne cessent de susciter l'hilarité dans ce nouveau classique du temps des fêtes. Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen, beloved, multi-award-winning duo, tackle a perennial question. When Santa arrives at a child's house on Christmas Eve, does he go down the chimney feet first or headfirst? What if he gets stuck? What if there's no chimney? Maybe he slides under the door, as thin as a piece of paper? Or is it possible he pours himself through the faucet? What happens once he's inside? The timeless question is answered with ridiculous, plausible, and fanciful explanations mounting in hilarity. This latest collaboration by the New York Times bestselling team will find a secure spot among family holiday traditions. Original title : How Does Santa Go Down the Chimney?
