You better watch out. You better not fight.
You better not doubt I'm stealing this night.

Traverse City is home to three special superheroes. Meet Abigail, the oldest. When it comes to sports she can't be beat. Andrew is her twin. If it has wheels, he can ride it. Baby Zoe is the youngest but also the strongest. Don't let the diaper fool you.

In this adventure, Christmas is in danger. Candy bandits cheat down chimneys looking to poach presents placed under the tree. If the heroes don't wrap the bandits up tight, there won't even be coal in their stockings on Christmas morn.
