Not Enough Beds!
A Christmas Alphabet Book
Synopsis
They’re snoring, they’re snacking, they’re singing, they’re napping … and they’re EVERYWHERE! When all of Zachary’s relatives come to visit for Christmas Eve, there aren’t enough beds for them all. So they end up sleeping in the craziest of places! Festive illustrations charmingly introduce each family member in alphabetical order.
Reviews
“engaging, cluttered fun” (New York Times Book Review)
“In this lively Christmas tale, young Zachary runs down an alphabetic roster of family members and where they bed down. … Oeltjenbrun’s funny illustrations make this romp through the zany household a Christmas delight.” (Booklist)
