I found this among my mother's older holiday decorations, but I do not know the actual age of the item. Based on the appropriate to the era aged color to the pages and the illustrations--please see pictures--it doesn't appear to be a reproduction. But please judge for yourself.

The 30+ page book is die cut to match the gorgeous full-color Santa on the cover. The story tells about two lucky children who ride with Santa on Christmas eve to visit different places all around the world and learn about their cultures. I have included pictures on some of the pages so you can see examples of the poem-like writing, the adorable illustrations, etc. Please note that there seems to be some small number of letters or parts of images that are missing from being cut too close to the page edge or from being trasferred to the reverse page over time.

Another thing to consider is that the story includes some not-very-PC (for modern times) terms in describing groups of people around the world which would seem to add some authenticity to it being an original. Please not that I do not mean to endorse those terms or ideas by sharing/listing this idea.
