Customer Reviews

Simply scrumptious
Robert Sabuda should do nothing else with his life but create these masterpieces for us. His ability to create pop ups that literally "pop out" of the pages is matched by none. The cookies elicit memories of Christmases past and bring the memory alive of holiday baking when it was a mandate to do it. The final gingerbread house brings tears to my eyes. Sabuda is a master, and he'd better not create a cult, because I will have to leave my family and be one of his groupies.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!
This is a wonderful book for children of all ages. The pop-ups are fun and fanciful and will make you ooh and aah. I dare any adult to look at it and not be thrilled. The paper engineering is remarkable and you will stay awake at nights wondering how the artist could make such wonders. This is in full color as opposed to Sabuda's other works mainly done in white. I would make sure small hands are not allowed to get too friendly with this book so as to keep it functional.

Probably the year's most delicious book!
Absolutely a stunning feat of paper engineering!

You almost wish you could eat the cookies as they pop off the page into your eyes. A clever little story without words occurs behind the simple rhyme that counts out all the cookies. For those watching the waistline, be glad you can only look at the pictures, and this book will stuff only stockings this holiday season and not tummies!
