Follow on Google News | The Cyber Claus Helps Send Christmas Gifts to Less Fortunate ChildrenPhotographer and Music Video Director David McIntyre has just published his first book, The Cyber Claus and in the sprit of Christmas giving McIntyre is donating a dollar from every sale to children's charities.
By: David McIntyre 'Santa's been kidnapped, the season's been cursed, By a cyborg who's known as Meenie Me-First.' Thus begins 'The Cyber Claus' by David McIntyre, a modern Christmas adventure for Kids aged 4 to 104. Published for Amazon Kindle it updates the classic 'Christmas has been stolen' plot and brings it into the digital age. And because the spirit of Christmas is giving, McIntyre is donating a dollar for every book sold to children's charities, including Toys for Tots in the US and the Children in Need in the UK. When Meenie learns of the unselfish letter that Jack & Holly have send Santa he sends his henchmen (two giant snowmen) to bring the children to the Grotto where he hopes to educate them in the art of getting! He explains why he kidnapped Santa. “Santa meant well but he lived in the past. His seasonal madness could never last. Making toys every day without a penny of pay Then along comes Christmas, and he gives them away! What was he thinking? He got nothing back. Just give, Give, Give... So I gave him the sack." Before telling them how, in his opinion, Christmas really works. "It's what you can a present but I call it a seed, Once planted in a child's heart it soon grows into greed." But Jack and Holly are made of stronger stuff and with the help of some long discarded toys they take on the Meenie and rescue Santa Claus who praises the children for their understanding of the spirit of Christmas. "There is giving for love and giving for gain, And you understood that they’re not both the same." This is McIntyre's first book although he argues it's not his first attempt at story telling. "Every picture and music video I've every made tells a story." David McIntyre was born in Scotland and now resides in New York City with his wife Kelley and two sons Rhys & Logan. As a fashion photographer he has worked around the world for many of the most prestigious magazines and fashion brands.
