Mustache Baby is headed straight for the naughty list until he figures out it is much more fun to give than to receive in this hilarious holiday gift book.
Billy is an unusual baby—he was born with a mustache! And his pal Javier was born with a beard. Things get even sillier on Christmas Eve when Javier's beard turns white and he becomes Santa Baby! Being Santa Baby is a lot of work—listening to the other babies' Christmas wishes, taste testing treats, and getting the dachshunds, ahem, reindeer, ready for their big night. Luckily, Mustache Baby, AKA Elf Baby, shows up in the St. Nick of time to help make the toys. But when he finishes, he decides to keep them all for himself! Hijinks ensue, landing Mustache Baby firmly on the naughty list. That is until a visit from Santa Grownup reminds him that it is much more fun to give than to receive. The perfect holiday gift for any family with a mustachioed or bearded dad.

      Silly Mustache Baby (and Santa Baby) holiday fun. In this fourth book about Mustache Baby (aka Baby Billy), his pal Baby Javier transforms into Santa Baby when his facial hair (he was born with a full beard) turns white. This makes him "Santa's #1 helper, Santa Baby!" Wanting to get in on the action, Baby Billy offers to help by making toys. Unfortunately, he likes his creations so much that he ends up hoarding them and earning a spot on the naughty list. His mustache transforms into a handlebar-style, or "BAD GUY MUSTACHE"--a somewhat fuller version of the one Snidely Whiplash sports in Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons. Santa Baby is so angry at his friend's greed that his beard turns into a "MAD GUY BEARD," and he "saddle[s] up the reindeer" (depicted as dachshunds) to pursue Baby Billy and recover the treats he's stolen. A misaimed snowball hits one of the "reindeer," which prompts the pair of babies to reconcile and care for the pup. Santa Grownup sees their compassionate deeds and rewards them with a trip in his sleigh "to help deliver presents all over the world"--but only after twice checking his list to find that "Billy had made it onto the nice list by a hair!" of course. Throughout, readers are gifted with other examples of wordplay and with comical details in the digital art. Illustrations depict Baby Billy and Santa Grownup as white; Baby Javier is presumably Latinx. Ho-ho-ho's from the goo-goo-gah-ers. (Picture book. 3-7)
