The Story: When Cecil and Simon Sneed show up at the North Pole the only thing they want is to nab the keys to Santa’s sleigh and steal all the Christmas presents. Tricking Mort the elf into helping them, their plan is nearly foolproof until Santa and the Peppermint Bear uncover their plot. Will Santa, Peppermint Bear and the elves be able to stop the Sneeds and save Christmas?
