dePaola, Tomie

Hurry, Santa!

(2) PS In the briefest of board books (originally published as a board book in 1996 as Get Dressed, Santa!), Santa gets all suited up for his big Christmas Eve trip, only to discover he forgot to do something first. "Oh no! He's got to GO!" So, off comes the raiment for a trip back to the bathroom. Phew. That's the whole story, but I'm guessing toilet trainees will find it hilarious every time. DePaola was the holiday's biggest fan, and his festive Christmas colors and bouncy rounded shapes are just right.
