Christmas Tree Trickery
11 pp · humor; children
Dennis MitchellHenry MitchellMargaret WadeAlice MitchellRuff (cameo)

Dennis has a talent for misunderstanding his father's instructions—this time during a Christmas tree shopping expedition that goes hilariously awry. When Henry Mitchell takes his son to pick out the perfect tree, Dennis manages to create chaos at every turn, from his literal interpretation of "two dollars a foot" to his well-intentioned but disastrous attempt to "trim" the tree once they get it home. It's a holiday mishap that proves some lessons are better learned the hard way, especially when Dennis is involved.

Dennis MitchellHenry MitchellEddie

Dennis Mitchell gets a hockey stick from his dad and heads to the frozen lake for his first lesson in the game—but his confusion about the rules and a few misunderstandings about what "goalie" actually means leads to plenty of rough-and-tumble chaos on the ice. It's all stick-swinging, puck-chasing mayhem as Dennis discovers that hockey is decidedly messier than the golf-on-ice he'd imagined.

Dennis MitchellJoey McDonald

Dennis explains the seasons to his pal Joey by connecting each name to what happens during that time of year—leaves fall in autumn, hockey players win in winter, new growth springs forth in spring, and summer brings its own surprises. It's a charmingly silly lesson in seasonal wordplay that only Dennis could deliver with such confidence.
