#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Celebrate the holidays with the beloved Crayons from The Day the Crayons Quit. This special hardcover book includes letters, games, ornaments, a poster, and even a pop-up Christmas tree!
Duncan and his crayons spent the next day playing in the snow. Feeling snowed out, but suddenly very Christmas-y, they crayons headed inside to warm up and get out the decorations.
’Tis the season for all of us to write our holiday wish lists. But everyone—even the Crayons—know the best presents are the ones that you give. In this unique book, readers get to see how Duncan, The Crayons, and their families celebrate the holidays. With real, folded letters from the Crayons that you can pull from their envelopes and read, plus games, punch-out ornaments, a poster, and a pop-up tree, this book is the perfect gift for the holidays.
