Toyland is an 8-page Disney comics story drawn and lettered by Carl Barks. Barks may have written the tale, but this is uncertain. Toyland features Donald Duck, his nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and Santa Claus.[1] It was first published by Dell as a Firestone Giveaway entitled Donald and Mickey Merry Christmas #1948 (December 1948). Also in the volume is an 8-page Mickey Mouse story entitled "A Day with Santa".[2]

Plot

Santa Claus invites Donald and his nephews to the North Pole to test the Christmas toys. Donald has a rough time (he crashes through the roof on a pogo stick, for example, and is chased by a polar bear), but the nephews decide all the toys are wonderful and just what children want. Santa is pleased.[3]
