☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis second volume in Gemstone's 2004 reprint series gathers a selection of classic Disney comic strips and stories with a holiday theme, featuring characters like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Scrooge McDuck in seasonal adventures originally published in the 1950s and 1960s. The collection showcases the work of legendary Disney artists such as Carl Barks and Floyd Gottfredson, presenting a nostalgic mix of humor and heartwarming tales perfect for Christmas reading.
In "You Can't Guess," Donald Duck sets a festive challenge for his nephews: guess what he wants for Christmas, and he'll buy them the building set they've been dreaming of. As the nephews struggle to guess, Donald's friends and family each take it upon themselves to surprise him with a new car—completing the gift for the nephews too. Written and illustrated by Carl Barks, this heartwarming holiday tale brings the classic Disney charm to life, with vibrant colors by Susan Daigle-Leach and lettering by Barks himself. The cover, a festive mix of whimsy and chaos, is by Jim Pabian and Josep Tello González.
When Donald Duck challenges Huey, Dewey, and Louie to guess his Christmas gift—promising them a spectacular building set if they succeed—what starts as a simple game quickly spirals into a whirlwind of well-meaning chaos. As the nephews’ guesses lead to a cascade of surprises, Daisy, Uncle Scrooge, Gladstone, Grandma Duck, and even Jarvis each decide Donald deserves a brand-new car, not just for him, but to match the gifts they’ve already bought the boys.
When Gyro Gearloose tests his latest invention, the "snow chaser," on Grandma Duck’s farm, he doesn’t expect the vaporized snow to spiral out of control—soon, storm clouds gather above the farm, and the ducks, along with Helper, must figure out how to handle the unexpected weather chaos before it’s too late.
When the holiday spirit hits Duckburg, even Uncle Scrooge can't resist the season's cheer—though he'd never admit it. Huey, Dewey, and Louie seize the moment, using a little sibling solidarity to convince Scrooge to buy them a chemistry set and Donald a dump truck, all in the name of Christmas magic.
