It's Christmas, and to Lucy that means "lots and lots of PRESENTS!" Lucy buys gifts for her "unicorn" (read: goat) Sparkle but is hurt on Christmas morning when it seems Sparkle didn't get anything for her. Like its predecessors (A Unicorn Named Sparkle etc.), the book imparts a valuable lesson in a child-appropriate way; the cheery illustrations layer in some festive red and green.
