Synopsis

Christmas at Henry and Mudge's house means cookies and carols and presents, and the whole family gathering for a delicious breakfast (with lots of food falling on the floor for Mudge). It may just be the best Christmas ever -- but Henry's favorite present is the big, lovable dog he's had all along.

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 2–In three chapters, Henry and his 180-pound behemoth of a dog bake cookies for their relatives, go caroling with Uncle Ed and Annie, and open presents and eat breakfast together on Christmas morning. The scene at the table, in which all of the adults "accidentally" drop pancakes, muffins, and ham for Mudge, is priceless. Rylant's words and Stevenson's pictures work together to create a charming and funny holiday title that beginning readers and their grown-ups will savor year-round.–M. A.
