The Tooth Fairy meets Santa. A funny rhyming story, with that feel-good Christmas factor! The winter wind blasted her this way and that. It blew up her knickers and blew off her hat.

But who''s that dashing through the sky? It''s Santa to the rescue... From the Winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize and the illustrator of the bestselling The Dinosaur that Pooped Christmas. The perfect Christmas gift!
