A chaos, humor and warmth of a Cappy Christmas, showing that everyone has naughty and nice moments

Santa is checking his list, but the Cappys are starting to worry… have they been a little too naughty this year? From pushing and pinching to sneaky snack stealing, the Cappys know their behavior hasn’t been perfect. Meanwhile, Bossy Cappy is certain she’s been perfectly behaved and is the only one deserving of presents.

But when Christmas morning arrives, what a surprise! A playful, laugh-out-loud tale about the importance of forgiveness in a world where everyone may be nice but sometimes, we might all be a little bit naughty!
