Ziggy's Gift Review
For many years we had this special taped off television, and then we lost it. It's one of those old Christmas cartoons that just makes it Christmas to me, and when I found it on DVD I had to buy it. After all these years it's just as good as I remembered, and I'm not at all ashamed to admit, it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside to watch it. The sort of Christmas special they don't make anymore. I find the difference between cheesy and touching is often a case of sincerity, this cartoon makes it work. Finding this and "A Wish for Wings that Work" on Amazon have been what got me shopping here.
Ziggy's Gift Overview
Ziggy, the comic icon, comes to life for the first time in this Emmy Award winning, animated feature film packed with all the love and good cheer of the Holiday Season!

This Christmas special is one of my very favorites! Ziggy never utters so much as a word, but his good deeds speak volumes throughout the short bringing smiles and a few touching tears along the way.
