Have a Cool Yule: Merry Christmas from Will Bullas

by Will Bullas

Here are puns for our favorite holidays, definitively illustrated with Bullas's stylish and anthropomorphized animals. HAVE A COOL YULE is filled with whimsical Christmas cheer delivered with Bullas's own brand of not-so-traditional fun. Ever kiss someone special under a mistletoad? Or watch the sugarplum fairies dance in the Nutquacker? See the most wonderful time of the year through the eyes of an animal. Meet the Christmas Goose-but don't be fooled; despite his festive attire he's the original Scrooge. There's also the tabby cat who's enjoying a Catnip Christmas and the duck-billed Santa Claus, trimmed like a tree and just waiting to get lit. Bullas's wit with his pen and brush guarantees a chuckle and an undeniably wacky perspective on the holiday season. Here is the perfect Christmas gift for anyone less concerned with tradition than with having a cool yule.

Christmas is one of my least favourite holidays, but I couldn't help but be charmed by Bullas' quirky Christmas animals. From the Sgt. Pepper-inspired nutcracker (I would totally buy one) to mistletoe class moose (argh moosletoed - worst/best pun) I couldn't stop laughing as I perused his illustrations. I wasn't planning on keeping this book (it would be perfect to add to one of my random packages to friends), but I think I'll keep it for a while :)
