A festive storybook with a pop-up surprise

Santa's Surprise
         Cover of Santa's Surprise (Moving Windows)

Looking for a fun book that will entertain and get young readers in a festive mood for the holidays? Press the button on the cover of Santa's Surprise (Moving Windows) and you'll enjoy the sounds of Jingle Bells as a 3-D illustration of Santa travels through the night sky along with all of his trusty reindeer. The lights on the Christmas tree light up as an elf and snowman sport smiles and cheer.

When you can finally pull yourself away from the cover, you'll encounter a rhyming tale that takes you from the North Pole to Santa delivering all of the gifts to Santa's sleigh soaring across the sky, saying, "Merry Christmas to you all."

The illustrations are bright and colorful and the giant pop-up surprise at the end is a real Christmas treat. This is one book children will love to find under the tree Christmas morning.
