Christmas with Rita and Whatsit -- Rita and Whatsit have a lot to do to get ready for Christmas, including writing to Santa (he needs a few suggestions, of course), decorating the tree (with sausages), and making a delicious snack for Santa and the reindeer. Together, Rita and Whatsit are more than a match for all these challenges. But the hardest part comes last—staying in bed!
