The Perfect Christmas (Penguin and Pup!) by Hazel Gardner and Nikki Dyson - ESSENTIAL

The Perfect Christmas (Penguin and Pup!) by Hazel Gardner and Nikki Dyson. PICTURE BOOK. Macmillan, 2025. $10 (paperback). 9781035014743

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL

APPEALS TO: MANY

Penguin has an idea of what he wants for a perfect Christmas - simple, with a beautifully decorated tree.  Pup has many, many other plans. Can Penguin get Pup to listen?

DYson has created a bright, fun world for Penguin and Pup. And Gardner has really excelled at creating rhyme without making the reader burst into song. I need this one for myself this Christmas! And I need to read the duo’s other adventures.
