The 12 days of Xmas Daily Gift Guide.....The 1st Day...

On the first day of Xmas my true love gave to me......

.......a GIGANTIC pair of books - The Almost Everything Book and Zoo-Ology, by Joelle Jolivet. These two books are amazing - perfect for kids and adults. Beautiful illustrations throughout. The size of each book is about 12 x 20 and presents beautifully! Each book sells for $22.95.

Here is a bit from the publisher:

----------------------------------

A skyscraper? An igloo? A Bengal tiger? A high-speed train? A horse and cart? Encyclopedic and stylish, Almost Everything & Zoo-ology is full of things both familiar and unexpected, arranged in simple categories -- buildings, transportation, costumes, plants, animals, and much more. The wealth of detail and oversize design is matched by bold, dramatic block print art, in a book that will capture and hold the attention of all who pick it up!

Here is a quote from the publisher:

"The historic journey of Barack and Michelle Obama to the White House is memorialized in this fun yet fashionable paper doll book featuring the Obamas. For the millions who can't get enough of this remarkable first family, here's a book containing perforated press-out dolls of Barack and Michelle and over 30 mix-and-match coordinated outfits and accessories featuring the Obamas:

--on vacation in Hawaii
--golfing at Camp David
--on election night
--at the extraordinary inauguration and Inaugural Ball
--traveling the world on foreign affairs trip
--rolling up their sleeves for a day of service plus much more!

Highlighting Barack’s uniquely professional, yet down-to-earth wardrobe that reflects his popular persona and Michelle's outstanding taste in fashion, this book is a must for anyone wanting that special "yes we can" kind of day, every day.
