We Wish for a Monster Christmas

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Claudia Ranucci. When two siblings bypass their parents and ask Santa for a monster, the huge, hairy creature he brings is lovable but very destructive. Undaunted, the children plan to ask for monkeys next year. Written to be sung to the tune of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," the amusingly subversive story in rhyme is complemented by illustrations that expand on the children's zany schemes.
