“A Christmas tale to hold the whole family spellbound.“—starred, Kirkus Reviews

“Funny and lighthearted, this book takes the familiar Christian story and gives it a new life.

This beginning chapter book is perfect for readers who are looking for a holiday story with a humorous twist.“—School Library Journal
