Picture this: a full-grown moose comes crashing through the roof of your garage!

And not only does it fly - if a bit carelessly - it talks!

It seems that Mr Moose was on a test drive with Santa Claus when he lost control of his sleigh. Max appreciates the uninvited visit, even if he stopped believing in Santa ages ago. With his parents recently separated, a new friend is always welcome. In Mr Moose he finds a partner with whom to watch movies, an unusual ally against bullies and, most important of all, someone who understands how much he misses his father. But Max soon finds out that being friends with a moose isn't all that simple. Especially since the grumpy neighbour Mr Panneman is keen on adding moose antlers to his hunting trophies.
