It is Christmas Eve, and everyone is sound asleep except for a lone mouse who resides in the grandfather clock. When Santa Claus arrives, lost in a blizzard, the mouse is the only one capable of guiding him. Together, they embark on a magical sleigh ride, delivering presents throughout the town. However, the most significant gift of all is for the mouse—a special friend with whom to spend Christmas Day. This Christmas children's book is available in a paperback edition.
