Happy Holidays―Animated!: A Worldwide Encyclopedia of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and New Year’s Cartoons on Television and Film Paperback – Import, 30 May 2019

This reference book is supposed to cover over 1800 animated movies, not only cartoons but also stop motion as well, I did not bother to count but I can say that this book is truly international in scope. In the case of teleserials such as The Flintstones, Superbook, Super Why, Davey and Goliath, Pinocchio, The Simpsons, Dora the Explorer, 6Teen, Roobarb, Piggy Tales, The New Kids on the Block, Magic Adventures of Mumfie, Be Cool Scooby Doo!, Popeye, The Secret World of Santa Claus, and Doki, the series is under the main title with details on single episodes, in the case of Linus the Lionhearted, the info is sparse, but, at least it is listed, missing is Bravestarr, which had an episode that adapted Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol for the show's lead villain. Perhaps he never saw it. On occasion he will list an episode of a show under the episode title, on example is Santa Claw, an episode of Gadget and the Gadgetinis. Despite a few missing titles and a few entries that read like he sourced his info, this book does cover a lot. The Insects' Christmas (1913), The Ice Moose (1999), Father Christmas and the Missing Reindeer (1987), Nicholas : The Boy Who Became Santa (1990), Nick and Noe (1993), Molly and the Christmas Monster (2010), The 12 Quadrillion Days of Christmas (2017), a 1920s The Story of Santa Claus, LeapFrog : A Tad of Christmas Cheer (2007), and Milroy : Santa's Misfit Mutt (1987) are some of the more obscure movies covered. Yes, all the more familiar ones, Grinch, Santa and the Three Bears, Rudolph, The Little Drummer Boy (both of them), and there is a selection of monochrome pics.
