A little injury to the spine but no big deal
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
We ordered this for my sons 3rd birthday as he is really into TMNT and my husband re-lives his kid days with the older version of Ninja Turtles. The first book we got had a lot of damage/scuffs to the spine. We reordered and this one still had some but not as bad. It isn't a huge deal because it'll get torn up some anyway with my son playing with and reading it, but I did want it to look somewhat decent. He loves the book! It's a little longer of a read for him right now but he enjoys it.

The Bart Book
Format: Paperback
My family loves the Simpsons. For some reason they just can't get enough. So, I bought them the books. Not only did I buy the Bart book, I bought the Homer, Lisa, and Ned Flander's Book of Faith. They are all hilarious!
If you are a Simpsons fan I highly recommend these books. They will make you laugh!
