Have a Cool Yule: Merry Christmas from Will Bullas [Hardcover]

Will Bullas (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 2001

Here are puns for our favorite holidays, definitively illustrated with Bullas's stylish and anthropomorphized animals.

HAVE A COOL YULE is filled with whimsical Christmas cheer delivered with Bullas's own brand of not-so-traditional fun. Ever kiss someone special under a mistletoad? Or watch the sugarplum fairies dance in the Nutquacker?

See the most wonderful time of the year through the eyes of an animal. Meet the Christmas Goose-but don't be fooled; despite his festive attire he's the original Scrooge. There's also the tabby cat who's enjoying a Catnip Christmas and the duck-billed Santa Claus, trimmed like a tree and just waiting to get lit.

Bullas's wit with his pen and brush guarantees a chuckle and an undeniably wacky perspective on the holiday season. Here is the perfect Christmas gift for anyone less concerned with tradition than with having a cool yule.

This review is from: Have a Cool Yule: Merry Christmas from Will Bullas (Hardcover)

This little volume only 61/2" x 7" is a perfect gift for you to give to some harried person you love that has been scurrying around, shopping, baking, cooking, cleaning, wrapping and decorating to make the holidays wonderful. I suggest you put it on a tray with some hot cocoa (with a candy cane in it) and a couple of those Christmas cookies and serve it up with a kiss BEFORE Christmas Eve. It contains 33 colorful and very funny and endearing paintings of charming animals in zany holiday motiff. You'll love them all but my favorite is a big Polar Bear expectantly puckered up beneath the mistletoe, and I know you'll chuckle when you see the walrus in his Santa suit. The only text is a witty caption beneath each picture so there's no "work" to enjoying this book. Maybe throw in a pair of warm slippers when you give this book and stick around to share the smiles.
