Delight in Christmas A-Z as you lift the flaps and read the short rhyming poetry here.

Emmett and Arrhenius have pulled out all of the stops in their interactive, display-worth Christmas board book. The 13 pages are double-sided and the whole things pulls out accordion-style to create an instant tabletop display. I may not have a Christmas village at my house, but will certainly be setting this one up! The short poems rhyme well, and there is even at least one homophone joke embedded amongst them.
