A Holiday Board Book

Checking Availibility...Description
Nichole Mara and Andrew Kolb's All Aboard! The Christmas Train is a fun, interactive board book ride from beginning to end, featuring a running landscape dotted with objects for children to find and count on the back of the book.
Folding out car by car, this accordion-style book takes readers on a tour of Santa's Christmas train. Each car has lots to see--elves making toys, penguins playing, reindeer preparing for the big day--as Santa searches for his missing boot.
"This delightful, non-narrative excursion unfolds--literally--in a sturdy volume that extends into a yuletide train over 4 feet long. . . . With so much to see, seek, and answer, this book has a ton of interactive appeal. The cartoonish illustrations are charming and rich in detail, and it is rendered in a lush, pleasing palette with a refreshingly brown-skinned Santa as its star. Train-loving tots may fancy this Christmas ride all year long." --Kirkus Reviews

Reviews
"Kolb's spirited cartoon art offers plenty of eye candy (kudos to Kolb for Santa's brown skin), while the long and narrow, multifaceted format is great fun."
