The cover to the DVD release.

The plot is loosely based on Charles Dickens' classic holiday story A Christmas Carol.

SPOILER: Plot details or story follow.

Santa narrates the classic holiday story A Christmas Carol with a Dora twist. Swiper the Fox tries to swipe the Christmas tree star from Dora's Nochebuena party, which promptly lands him on Santa's naughty list. When Dora tries to ask the big guy in red for another chance for Swiper to get off the naughty list, he does agree - but only if Swiper learns the true meaning of Christmas.

Spoilers end here.
