Honestly, who doesn’t love a book about animals and girls that love them. Allie helps her family at a local animal rescue. They found their first dog, named Christmas, from the shelter as a puppy. When the family is beginning to leave the shelter they find a box with a small puppy in it. Needless to say, it was instant love, but Allie has a dilemma, she can’t find a name for her new puppy. As she is going to sleep, her puppy’s name comes to her and she knows that she will be loved every day.
The artwork in this sweet book is beautiful. And I love the story. It’s simple, but relatable. I also like that at the back of the book, there are questions that can be asked about animal rescue and terms use such as microchipping which can lead to a class discussion.

5/5 Everyday is a Holiday by Greg Kincaid
This book was such a fun and adorable read with my little ones! Now they’re determined to get a puppy they can name themselves—haha! The illustrations perfectly complemented the story and flowed so beautifully, making it even more enjoyable. Allie was such a sweet character, and both my children and I loved reading this during storytime. I’ll definitely be adding the physical book to their bookshelf!
A big thank you to NetGalley for providing a copy of this book!

This book gives all the warm, fuzzy feelings of a great children's book. I love how it all comes together at the end and what a perfect ending! This book is great for adolescents who have animals or are thinking about getting an animal because it shows the chores that are required in taking care of them. The holidays it touches on are also a great learning tool. And of course the special message that Shelter Animals are just as special as any others. Really loved this book. Thank you, Mr. Kincaid for putting a smile on my face!

Oh how I love children's books. They have simple yet impactful lesson in such a short story. Easy to understand and brilliant. Every day is a holiday is vivid, colorful and with lots of fun in the pages.
This story is kind and cheerful. My kid loved it and I feel it's going to be here favourite for a long time. Which is a great thing coz you know how kids change their favourite so often. Perfect way to teach kids to be kind and compassionate.
Would definitely recommend it.

A darling story about a young girl named Allie who falls in love with a puppy. As she searches for the perfect name she tells him of all the things they have to look forward to in his life. Love the emphasis on service, adopting responsibly, and enjoying time with those you love. The artwork is gorgeous and I can see kids going nuts over the cute animals in the book.
Thank you to 4U2B Books & Media for providing me with an ARC. I loved it.

Thank you Netgally for allowing me a copy of the ARC!
Such a cute story!
My son loved the all the Cute dogs.

Thank you for the ARC. A little girl struggles to name her dog until she discovers the perfect name. This was a cute little story about the joys of holidays.

Such a sweet story about a little girl trying to find the perfect name for her new puppy. I love that the character helps out at her family's animal shelter as it shows kids that they can help in important ways as well no matter how small. Also I love the spotlight on animal shelters and what they do to care for the animals. Overall an absolutely beautiful book.

A sweet celebration of pets and family. This book is a great way to encourage children to adopt a shelter pet—something I heartily approve of.
Cute book with a great message.

This review is for an ARC that I recently read. I would recommend this book to every family with young children. I also love buying books for the children in my life, and this will be one that I give to many children. The book had a great story line. The illustrations were cute and detailed oriented per page. The story kept my twins attention, and they were excited to see what else the character did next and what she was going to name her puppy.

Thank you so much to 4U2B Books & Media and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.
Allie’s parents work in an animal shelter, Allie likes to help out, her favourite job is naming the animals that come. But when an abandoned puppy arrives she has no idea what to call it, she spend lots of time with it trying so hard to figure it out.
Allie was really adorable she had such a cute personality and she became so attached to the new puppy that came through, her relationship with it was adorable. She shared everything she knew with him, trying to think of what she wanted to call him teaching him all about the holidays that occur, it was really clever and really sweet.
I enjoyed this book a lot, the illustrations were really cute and showed how precious the animals and Allie were within the book. It also has a great message about getting animals from a shelter so they can have a second chance which I really liked that. A very fun and sweet read, perfect for any young children and especially those that love animals.

My four kids and I absolutely cherished reading this book together. We loved all the fun pictures and the adorable story. Highly recommend!

Well this book was quite adorable and I love the unique storyline. A big advocate of rescue dogs myself, I am instantly drawn to any book that features them. With sweet illustrations and a positive message, this is a surefire hit with children and any dog lover.

This book is really cute, with a special visit from the dog Christmas to tie in to the author's adult series. My daughter (5) loved hearing about how Allie took care of the animals at the shelter ("she feeds them like I feed the cats mommy!") and was fascinated by the puppy sling. She loved all of the different name ideas, but Jack was her favourite as Halloween is her favourite holiday. We talked about how some animals go to the shelter and that's how they find their families, and also about the questions at the end and how, with one of the cats we adopted before she was born, we should have verified a bunch of information to know he wouldn't get along with our other cats at home. This book is excellent if you're looking to adopt a new animal. It has an information page at the end with things to discuss and consider, and helps kids understand the process a bit more. The illustrations are adorable, and Allie is just cute as a button. We really enjoyed this book! We read this ebook through NetGalley.

Thank you 4U2B Books & Media and NetGalley for the digital ARC.
This is a fun story about adopting and naming a puppy.
The illustrations are colorful and detailed and will hold the attention of children. I liked that the book had a little information at the very end about what to consider before adopting a pet.

This was VERY cute and I love the way the different holidays were incorporated into the story and I like that it wasn’t just stating the main character could name them after different holidays. The illustrations are very cute though I would recommend maybe a different font that would be easier for children to read.

The font choice in Every Day Is a Holiday is fantastic—it’s clean and easy for children to read, but it also complements the book’s illustrations and overall tone. The whimsical, cozy feel of the art pairs perfectly with the cheerful and heartfelt story, making it an inviting read for young ones. The story itself follows Allie, a girl who helps out at an animal shelter, as she bonds with a puppy and struggles to find the perfect name for him. It’s an adorable concept, and the vibrant illustrations really bring the characters and emotions to life.
What I enjoyed the most about this book was its ability to subtly teach kids about compassion, kindness, and the joy of adopting animals from shelters. The relationship between Allie and the puppy is heartwarming, and the story does a wonderful job showing how small acts of love and care can turn any day into a celebration. The theme of naming the puppy to reflect a sense of holiday cheer is really sweet and adds a layer of warmth and fun to the story. Plus, the cute illustrations are filled with so much personality—they make the whole experience even more enjoyable.
This is definitely a book I’d recommend to families, especially those who are looking to adopt a pet or who already have one. It’s a heartwarming, feel-good story with the perfect balance of fun and meaningful messages. A lovely addition to any children's library!
