“In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines lived twelve little girls in two straight lines.” It’s Christmas Eve in Paris and everyone is in bed with the flu, except for the ever-resilient Madeline. Expecting to see Santa, Madeline answers a mysterious knock at the door to find the Rug Merchant who has brought twelve very special rugs. The girls fly home on magic carpets to be with their families for Christmas! While they’re away Miss Clavel finds a present that the girls left for her, befriends a little mouse, and counts her many blessings. Before you know it, the girls fl y back to spend New Year’s Eve together again. They thank Madeline for taking care of them and making their Christmas so special!
