Hurry, Santa by Tomie dePaola - ESSENTIAL

Hurry, Santa
by Tomie dePaola,
BOARD BOOK Little Simon Simon and Schuster, 2020. $8. 9781534464056 

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre K - ESSENTIAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH 

Santa is getting ready to go. He puts on his coat, hat, gloves and belt, but oh no! Santa has to go, so off comes the coat, hat, gloves and belt and Santa runs to the bathroom! Phew! He gets dressed again and heads off to deliver Christmas. 

Oh so cute. The snow on the cover literally sparkles, Santa has a dog and a cat who play in the clothes, but the best illustration is Santa - looks just like Tomie dePaola - no better character to self portrait. DePaola passed away this year. He will be missed.
