“The hilarious story of one of St. Nick’s alligators who was left behind after the toys were delivered one Christmas Eve” (Foreword Reviews).

Boudreau needs to get away. His children are hollering as they play with their new toys, and his wife has cleaned out their pocketbook after buying Christmas gifts and treats. As he drifts down the bayou on a moonlit night, Boudreau spies Pierre, one of St. Nicholas’s alligators that has been left behind! Boudreau offers Pierre a home to keep him safe from hunters and trappers.

Will St. Nick ever come back for his lost gator? And what will Boudreau’s children think of this new pet? No matter what, it’s sure to be a very happy Cajun night after Christmas all through the year!
