A festive pun-filled story perfect for the holidays!
In this follow-up to When Carrot Met Cookie, Christmas is fast approaching, and Carrot and Cookie are both worried—they can't find the right present for each other! But when they hear a crash on Christmas Eve and find a sick Santa too ill to keep flying his sleigh, they know there are more important matters at hand. Can these friends conjure up enough Christmas magic to step into Santa's shoes, deliver the presents themselves, and save the day?
Hilarious and heartwarming, this is the perfect gift for future foodies or anyone looking for some special holiday cheer.
"This follow-up to When Carrot Met Cookie (2021) is as wholesome as it is funny [...] A sweet treat for the holiday shelves." —Kirkus Reviews
