He has 15 years to get used to and learn the tricks of the "Santa Claus " trade: learning how to get down the chimney flues, driving the sleigh.... Old Santa proves to be a wonderful teacher and Nicolas will get to share quite funny experiences with Humphrey the chief elf, Randolph the reindeer and Rufus the little polar bear.
