Hang on for a wild ride when you roll with the No-Good Nine!

The No-Good Nine are the kids your parents warned you to stay away from. The ragtag band of misfits lie, steal, run away from home, and even burn down Santa's toy factory. (They say it was an accident.) Anyway, Santa had it coming--he put coal in their stockings. Full of laughs and double-crosses, this tongue-in-cheek romp is for readers who like their Christmas spirit irreverent rather than sentimental.
"A tongue-in-cheek romp with currently topical overtones." --Kirkus Reviews
