Henry and the Claus

Tools are honest. They tell you what's broken.

Henry believes problems should make sense. A loose screw can be tightened. A broken hinge can be replaced. A crooked ornament can be straightened. Find the problem, choose the right tool, and put things back the way they belong.

Then, one snowy night, he meets Claus.

Claus carries a battered toolbox, answers questions badly, and has an unusual profession: he fixes cracks Henry cannot see.

Naturally, Henry follows.

Together they move through the sleeping town, answering the strange call of small things that have gone wrong. But the farther they go, the less anything works the way Henry thinks it should. Some worn things should stay worn. Some crooked things belong exactly as they are. And some problems offer no obvious place to begin.

Henry came looking for an explanation.

Claus may have come for something else.

With humor, mystery, and a quietly powerful heart, HENRY AND THE CLAUS is a story about memory, loss, hope, and the people who notice when something matters.

A timeless family tale for anyone who has ever wished life came with instructions-and discovered that the things that matter most rarely do.

Some things need fixing. Others need to be noticed.
