The Tinysaurs Save Christmas

When the Tinysaurs learn that Santa’s elves are all sick with tinsel-itis, they travel to Santa’s workshop to read the unopened letters to Santa and help make the toys in the hopes of saving Christmas. 

It’s almost Christmas, but there’s a problem at Santa’s workshop: the elves are all sick with tinsel-itis! The Tinysaurs—three friendly dinosaurs named Spike, Roary, and Clawdie—hear the news and travel to Santa’s workshop to help out. Clawdie and Spike each try making a toy, but Clawdie’s teddy bear looks curiously like a dinosaur, and Spike’s doll has dinosaur teeth! The youngest, Roary, tries making drumsticks, but because his tinysaur arms are so small, the drumsticks are much too long! It will take everyone’s help—and Santa’s guidance—to complete all of the tasks in time to save Christmas!
