Zack and Ivy of Acme liked Christmas a lot -- but when the Chief called on Christmas Eve, they knew it must be urgent. They emerged from the C5 to find the museum's director wringing his hands. "It's irreplaceable -- a cultural icon! The original drawing!"

"That's Carmen for you." Zack studied the plaque below the empty wall: Theodor Geisel, 1957, read the line beneath the title.

"True," said Ivy. "But you have to admire the poetic justice of it. Where's she taken him, I wonder?"

"To the top of Mt. Crumpet, of course."

"Of course."

Carmen Sandiego had stolen . . . the Grinch.

*laughs* That is so perfect! I didn't figure it out until you mentioned Mt. Crumpet. This is tied with the Jackie Chan story as my favorite.

For tomorrow, how about Christmas through Jack-Jack Parr's eyes?
