<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"An exhausted Santa wishes for youth and ends up becoming a baby days before Christmas"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Jonathan Stutzman and Heather Fox, the duo behind <i>Llama Destroys the World</i>, take their trademark hijinks up to the North Pole in this laugh-out-loud, heartfelt Christmas-themed picture book.</b> <p/>Santa is feeling <i>old</i>, and being in the business of Christmas for centuries is . . . well, it isn't all milk and cookies. In hopes of regaining some of his pep, Santa asks the spirit of Christmas to give <i>him </i>something for a change: skim off a couple of years and make him younger. <p/>But Christmas magic is powerful, and Santa gets more than he wished for. Instead of a fresh new outlook and boundless energy, he needs diapers and a nap--stat. With Christmas only a few days away, the elves rush to teach Santa Baby the basics. But will there be enough time to prepare their new bundle of holiday joy for the job? <p/>Funny and spirited, bright and inspiring, and with an unforgettable title, <i>Santa Baby </i>is destined to be a yuletide read families revisit every year.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Plenty of laughs...playfully complemented by Fox's child-friendly illustrations. --<i>Horn Book<br></i> <p/>Praise for <i>Llama Destroys the World</i>: <br><b><br>Summer 2019 Kids' Indie Next List Pick<br></b><br>Silly fun.--<i>People Magazine</i> <p/>Filled with llama drama and will having everyone laughing out loud.--<i>Romper</i> <p/>[A] super silly, amazingly original, best-when-read-aloud picture book.--<i>BookPage</i> <p/>Dessert has never seemed so epic. --<i>Publishers Weekly</i>, <b>Starred Review<br></b><br>The goofy premise itself will elicit giggles, but it's innocently wide-eyed Llama who really sells the silliness of the story.<b>--</b><i>The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books</i>, <b> Starred Review</b> <p/>Will make Rubin and Salmieri's fans split their own pants. --<i>Kirkus <p/></i>[T]his story will have readers chuckling again and again and coming back for more, just like Llama.<i>--</i><i>School Library Journal</i> <p/>Praise for <i>Don't Feed the Coos</i>: <p/>If it's true that being pooped on by a bird brings good luck, Stutzman and Fox's protagonist accrues some serious great fortune...Coo-coo storytime fun.--<i>Kirkus</i> <p/>Fox's graphic illustrations echo the text's giddy rhythms, with the pigeons styled...as pert, wide-eyed, always-in-profile graphic motifs that skip, flit, and, yes, poo prodigiously across the pages.<b> --</b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Jonathan Stutzman</b> is an award-winning filmmaker and a picture book author.
