Santa Bruce: A Perfect Gift for the Holidays!

The New York Times bestselling MOTHER BRUCE is home for the holidays in this board book format with the coziest stained edges, perfect for bedtime, readalouds, and any time you'd like a good laugh.

Bruce is a lot of things. He is a bear. He is a grump. He is a pretty decent cook. And he is a mother.

One thing Bruce is not?

Santa Claus.

But that doesn't stop the whole forest from lining up to give him their Christmas wishes when he becomes the victim of mistaken identity―again.

Kids will howl with laughter as award-winning author-illustrator Ryan T. Higgins delivers another hilarious story about this bear who just can't catch a break.
