Adventures in Cartooning: Christmas Special

40 pp. | Roaring Brook/First Second | September, 2012 | Paper ISBN 978-1-59643-730-2 $9.99
(2) K-3 Santa decides a comic book is the perfect Christmas present for gadget-addicted kids. The Magical Cartooning Elf helps write and deliver it; when the pair runs into trouble, a knight and dragon save the day. The book's amiable cartoon-panel art and meta elements invite readers to giggle at old-fashioned Santa (with his insistence on a "Night Before Christmas"–style cadence) alongside his tech-savvy elves.
