The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis
Most people know about the comparison of Aslan to Jesus.
There are the common similarities: both arrived at the same time as Father Christmas/Santa Claus (late December), both said they were sons of God or a great Emperor, both gave themselves up for someone else's fault to be jeered at and killed by wicked people, and came to life again.
