The team behind Take Me Out of the Bathtub now takes a turn dressing up songs in their holiday best-Where Did They Hide My Presents? Silly Dilly Christmas Songs by Alan Katz, illus. by David Catrow. "Toy catalogs/ Toy catalogs/ Each morning I inspect'em" is sung to the tune of "O Tannenbaum," and "Deck the Halls" transforms into "At the malls/ No parking spaces/ Ma ma ma ma ma/ Can't we go home?" Catrow's kooky pictures inject a large dose of holiday humor. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
