Illustrated by
Lynn Munsinger.
How can Nice Icy Land's penguin colony defend itself from a trio of hunters? Dress Tacky up as Santa, complete with shaving cream beard. The hunters think they've stumbled upon "Sandy Clawz," and all visions of hunting penguins dance out of their heads. Munsinger's jolly illustrations ratchet up the silliness of Lester's laugh-out-loud story. A CD of holiday songs is included.
