Dog's First Christmas: A Board Book

by Natalie Nelson

Overview

In this follow-up to the beloved board book Dog’s First Baby, Dog and Baby explore the delightful and puzzling ways their family prepares for Christmas.

See these branches? They’re not for tugging.
See this ball? It’s not for fetching.
 
It’s the holiday season, and Dog smells a change in the air. With his new friend Baby by his side, Dog investigates the many strange occurrences in their home—like a tree in the living room, fragile balls that are not for fetching, and friends new and old—as he gets into the Christmas spirit with his family.

This next book in the beloved Dog and Cat’s First series will inspire canines and humans alike to cuddle up and celebrate the season together.
