It is Christmas time and bugs of all kinds are appearing in the oddest of places. Why in the chimney “warm and snug” you will find a Santa Bug which is wearing a red hat. And what about in that stocking “hung with care?” There are Peppermint bugs to be found in there. If you look carefully at the wreath which is hanging on the door you will find Hollyberry Bugs hiding in among the leaves and berries.

Little children will have a wonderful time finding all the funny bugs which are hiding in gifts, on the tree, in envelopes and in lots of other places. Best of all they will love the light-up musical surprise which has been saved for the very last page of this amusing book. Clever and funny little rhymes carry the reader forward and with envelopes to open, tabs to pull, and flaps to lift, this is a truly interactive title which is sure to delight young readers.
