Santa Bruce

ABOUT THE BOOK
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.
We’ve read all four of the Bruce books and they never fail to make me and the kids laugh out loud! This time, Mother Bruce is a victim of mistaken identity, yet again! One day while outside shoveling snow in his red “Santa like” gear, he is mistaken to be Santa Claus. Santa Bruce is a cheerful and delightful story that is so fun to read aloud with kids during story time.
The illustrations capture the story so well too which makes it even funnier. The facial expressions that Bruce and the other animals make are so spot on and really help to bring the story to life.
Ready to find out how you can enter to win the giveaway? Read on. Good Luck!
