DESCRIPTION:
Too small to see ES This board book is very small, and there are multiple pictures on each page, some as small as an inch. It's a cute wordless book for pre-readers to flip through and use their imaginations, but the pictures are just too small for the youngest ones. My on. Mitch said This board book is tops!.

They join hands, rise up into the blizzardy air--presumably over Russia and into the Middle East--and then safely back to home sweet home. The amiable yet frosty fellow enjoys h
