It's Christmas Eve, and Santa is hard at work. When he begins to deliver presents at one of his usual stops, an unexpected visitor awaits him. The Goat. As Santa carries on with his usual holly jolly duties, the goat can't help but notice how delicious everything looks...the tinsel, the presents, the milk and cookies! Will Santa be able to stop this goat and its silly antics or will the goat EAT Christmas?!

Filled with fun rhyming text and action-packed illustrations, this hilarious picture book and read aloud is the perfect holiday gift or stocking stuffer for kids ages 3-7!

The goat's bearded face looked very suspicious.

For the goat had a thought...a thought most delicious.
