The Story
It’s December 23rd and Santa Claus is missing! What’s worse, he was the only one who knew the password for the master “Nice vs. Naughty” database. The North Pole is in an uproar, with Mrs. Claus, elves, reindeer, and various visitors milling about pointing fingers at each other.
Luckily, a Canadian Mountie stops in for a cup of hot chocolate and takes charge. “We have to work together to save Santa and Christmas!” she says.
Take on a North Pole character and help uncover who kidnapped Santa! Of course, maybe YOU did it yourself…
Appropriate for ages 10+!
Mentions of kidnapping, trauma, stealing, physical force, ADHD medication
