Scooter's Christmas

Scooter the Pig, first introduced in What's Polite? and What's Pretend? returns in this happy holiday tale. Come along with him as he visits Grandma, and open the many flaps throughout to find out what surprises lie beneath. It's perfect in the Christmas stocking or under the tree--and for youngsters to read and share with their grandparents.

Harriet Ziefert is a popular author of over 100 books for children and the owner and publisher of Blue Apple Books, located in Maplewood, NJ.

unending passion for children's books to our expanding juvenile list.
