One Christmas Eve, four little penguins make a surprising discovery in the snow: an elf has fallen out of Santa's sleigh! But what's even more surprising is that the penguins have never heard of elves of sleighs or Santas -- and they have never EVER heard of Christmas!

While the elves are looking the other way, the reader is encouraged to push the button, shake the book, and more despite the risk of getting on Santa's naughty list.

Once there was a jolly Santa who wanted to leave the North Pole on a worldwide vacation! He decides he wants to visit Mount Rushmore and see the stone faces of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt. Then he’ll ski the silky slopes of the Swiss Alps. And after that, he’ll ride an elephant in South Africa on a safari. Santa is eager for a new adventure, but Mrs. Claus isn’t so sure he’s ready just yet. Before he takes off, she’s going to make sure he’s got his rock climbing gear. And his skis, and his hat. He must be ready! It isn’t long before Santa realizes that maybe his adventure would be more fun with a friend. Mrs. Claus is clearly an expert adventurer herself, and so the two take off together on a runaway adventure. They have a little time before Christmas, after all, and everybody needs a break sometimes!
