Illustrated by
Matthew Holm.
In her picture-book debut, Babymouse (here a preschooler) eats Santa's cookies on Christmas Eve. Not wanting to jeopardize her Christmas wish for a suit of armor, Babymouse makes cupcakes for Santa instead. In a wild pink-tinted fantasy, Sir Babymouse defeats a fire-breathing dragon and celebrates with a medieval cupcake banquet. Oops. Animated panel and full-page illustrations (in full color) expand on the text's humor.
