A funny and fresh holiday picture book from #1 New York Times–bestselling author Jory John and award-winning illustrator Pierre Collet-Derby starring a rock-loving lizard who has no interest in being the hero of a Christmas story. Perfect for fans of The Monster at the End of This Book!
This is NOT a Christmas book.
Just so you know.
Just so we’re clear.
This is a book about rocks.
But . . . wait. Hold on. Why is there an elf behind that piece of granite over there? And what are those reindeer doing? And who’s this guy with a twinkle in his eye? Santa?!
Maybe this isn’t a book about rocks after all.
Will a very serious, rock-loving lizard be able to find his holiday spirit?
This laugh-out-loud story will bring some extra sparkle (and giggles) to the most wonderful time of the year. Also, features a double gatefold for readers to open the book just like a Christmas gift!
