About The Book

Everyone’s favorite Caldecott Honor–winning pig and number-one Santa Claus enthusiast, Olivia, helps to make the season brighter than ever in this lovingly told and lavishly illustrated picture book.

Christmas is coming, and Olivia is incredibly busy. She has to wait for Santa Claus, make sure dad sets up the tree, wait for Santa, watch mom make the Christmas dinner, wait for Santa, oversee the care with which the stockings are hung and, of course, OPEN HER PRESENTS! Do you see how hard it is to be so helpful during the holidays?
