Twas the Fight Before Christmas

Reach for this book when your child is grappling with the sting of unfairness or the frustration of seeing a 'naughty' peer seemingly get ahead. This high-energy chapter book follows the Powerpuff Girls as they race to save Christmas after their wealthy, spoiled rival, Princess Morbucks, manipulates Santa's lists to get every gift on Earth for herself. While the tone is fast-paced and humorous, it provides a valuable entry point for discussing why rules matter and how jealousy can lead to isolation. It is an ideal bridge for early readers (ages 7-10) who enjoy superhero action but are also ready to think about the ethics of 'good' versus 'bad' behavior during the high-stakes holiday season.
