Hundreds of years after the classic tale The Night Before Christmas was first published, Fergus, the world's most popular cartoon horse, shares his own holiday adventure in the skies. And a very different sort of escapade it is! Accompanied by his team of faithful equine friends (and a familiar merry coachman clothed in red and white), Fergus bravely bounds from rooftop to rooftop-with only the occasional crash, bumble, and stumble along the way. But when he and his motley hitch of horses seem destined to botch the most important night of the year, the fate of a sleigh-load of Christmas presents (literally) hangs in the air. What will it take to secure Santa's precious load and get the goodies down the chimney in time? From the jingle-jangle of the harness to the occasional buck from behind, Fergus's newest exploits are hilarious holiday fun for all. Recommended for ages 5 to 95.

" -Savanna Ganucheau, co-creator of Bloom "A sharp and authentic wild ride that brought me back to my teenage years as a punk with a dial-up connection." -Kevin Panetta, co-creator of Bloom "A poignant and often hilarious reminder that technology is at its best when it's easing the ache of loneliness and bringing people together." -Jeff Zentner, Morris Award-winning author of The Serpent King

This includes the fact that when Nana dies, Arsalan will be completely alone in the world, except for his estranged and abusive father. So he turns to Beenish, the step-daughter of a prominent matchmaker, to find him a future life partner. Beenish's request in return? That Arsalan help her ruin her older sister's wedding with a spectacular dance she's been forbidden to perform. Despite knowing as little about dancing as he does about girls, Arsalan wades into Beenish's chaotic world to discover friends and family he never expected. And though Arsalan's old-school manners and Beenish's take-no-prisoners attitude clash every minute, they find themselves getting closer and closer - literally.
