THE STORY: As Christmas approaches, Queen Charlotte is in despair, for the King has been bitten by Bertram, the Bat, and has gone quite mad. On top of this, Santa has vanished and the Palace Christmas party promises to be a disaster. Max, the Ho Hum Husky also has his nose out of joint, because his friend, Miss Brandy, is so taken with Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer, that she has forgotten about those who are nearest and dearest to her. The Queen sends for a beautiful Persian Princess who has the power to cure the King, but she disappears somewhere over the mountains of Scotland. So Max and Brandy embark on their most hazardous adventure yet, bravely facing the winter elements and a variety of unknown perils as they travel to Scotland and lead the search for the Sorcerer Princess. They travel all night, and finally reach a village where, to their amazement, nearly all the inhabitants have become invisible after witnessing a great collision in the sky. When Max and Brandy leave the village, they travel further into the mountains and find the Princess, but their problems are not yet over. As they prepare to take the Princess back to the Palace, Rudolph appears. It seems that Santa has also gone mad and has retreated to a cave in the mountains. The Princess tells Max how to cure Santa, but he botches the spell, for although Santa recovers his sanity, he becomes invisible, just like the Scottish villagers. However, after facing an earthquake, a bout of river rafting, and an attack from Bertram, the Bat, Max emerges triumphant. Both Santa and the King are cured, the Princess gets home safely, and once again, thanks to Max, the Ho Hum Husky, everyone has a Merry Christmas.
