"Bob and 6 more Christmas stories" text and pictures by Sandra Boynton, published by Little Simon an imprint of Simon and Schuster, 1999. Stated First Edition, first printing with ‘1’ present in the line.Board book, 7" wide including tabs; 8" tall; 8 spreads, very good near fine condition.

"The winsome tale of Bob opens this board book of seven Boynton Christmas stories. Using the delightful tabs, little children can choose the story they want to hear."

Stories include: Bob; Merry Christmas Party; The Star; A Big Box; Eight Wishes; Wake Up! and Christmas Lullaby.

"Guided by the colorful picture tabs, every perfectly silly selection is just right for snuggling by, all December long. And highly approved by Bob."

"Boynton's cartoon characters-reindeer, pigs, ducks, cows, and hippos-are big-eyed, round-tummied, and energetic. Each of these seven brief "stories" occurs in its entirety on a double-page spread and is told in rhyme; the final selection is a lullaby, complete with music. Bright artwork, appealingly goofy text, and subjects of intrinsic interest (finding a box big enough to wrap a hippo in, a reindeer tinier than a teacup) add up to a winning, fun-filled formula."
