Allie and her family run a local animal shelter. When a puppy is found on the doorstep one morning, Allie has the job of giving the pup a name. She goes through several names and finally decides on one she thinks will fit. Allie and her new puppy make great friends. Is there a hint at the end that another story might be forthcoming? There are questions at the end for those wanting to find a new puppy at a shelter. These are a great follow-up to the story. Bright and color illustrations makes this an enjoyable read!

An adorable story about a girl trying to discover the perfect name for a new puppy. It shows how families and pets are all a part of the love and joy and what makes a great holiday.

This was so so cute!! I love the inclusion of animal shelters, definitely encouraging kids to get involved. The art of the characters and dogs are amazing. The name of holiday to show all of the fun holidays and its happiness always being there with the puppy is just the best! Kids would love this.

Every Day is a Holiday is an adorable children's book about a little girl adopting a cute puppy and trying to find him the perfect name. The illustrations are rich, colourful and cosy as can be. It's a lovely story.

This story follows a little girl who helps out at an animal shelter with her parents. She meets a puppy and falls in love, but now she has to find the perfect name. This one has really cute illustrations and was kid approved!

Fun and educational book about an animal shelter and a girl who loves the animals. Thank you NetGalley for the ARC!

What an adorable reminder to cherish life as it is! The ordinary AND the extraordinary. This will be the perfect read for children and parents who need a little extra reminder on rough days. The illustration is beautiful as well. The colors are perfect for the book! Not too harsh on the eyes.

Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. Here are my thoughts: you can’t go wrong with a dog book for kids! My 3yo daughter loved the dogs and animals in the illustrations. I don’t think she caught on to the text of the story walking through different holidays and then landing on Holiday as the dog name, but she liked it all the same!

A girl tries to figure out a name for her new puppy. As she thinks about names and different holidays, the name finally comes to her.
Thanks NetGalley for this ARC.

Every day is a holiday is a heartwarming tale of loving pets, compassion and kindness towards animals. The story follows Allie McCray who finds an abandoned puppy in the local animal shelter that parents own. Upon multiple thoughts on what to name this cute pup, she still hasn't found the perfect name that would mesh well with this adorable pup's personality.
Her other dog who is named Christmas has been perfectly named so it is important to find one best suited.
This book is beautifully written and the morals of compassion, kindness and love towards animals is greatly conveyed. I appreciate the author's incredible writing style and the characters that she created. The illustrations are vivid and adorable. I loved it.
Highly recommend this book!

This was a lovely read! I enjoyed the concept of the dog being named in honor of spending time with your loved ones on holidays. The only critique I have is some of the lettering and spacing was off on my kindle. Certain words would be elongated and it did not seem to be part of the book. The length of the book was perfect and the illustrations were well done!

The illustrations are absolutely stunning, Overall, the book was well written and I did really enjoy it. Thank you for this advance reading copy!

This was a very cute book! The overall story arc is darling. The writing keeps the story moving forward, and culminates in a very cute reveal. I personally feel the turkeys were not necessary, but this is a preference specific to me that others may not agree with. It did not specifically detract from the story. It is likely I will purchase for my nephew when it is released. I would recommend this book to others to purchase for children in their lives. Thank you for the advanced copy!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced copy
This was a delightful and heartwarming childrens book. This story really touched my heart. I think adults and children alike will find something they enjoy about this book. I especially enjoyed the illustrations and the message of the story.

This was such a cute book. Even though I’m an adult, the dog lover in me was so excited to read this. I honestly think this would be a very fun read for kids or any dog lover. The illustrations were so simple and colourful which will get kids really engrossed in to this book. The author used very basic and short sentences which can help young children who are just stepping into school or beginning to learn English. Overall, I loved reading this book!

Cute read but it was just okay. It could be the ages of my kids that is skewing how I feel about the book. It is slightly "long" although not complex to keep the attention of my toddler but for my third grader it's not fully a chapter book either. I think it would be perfect for a slightly older child, if you're reading it to them since they cannot read yet.

This book is adorable. We follow Allie as she helps her parents out at the animal shelter they run. The book shows how being helpful can be fun. One day they arrive to discover and abandoned puppy in a box on the shelter's doorstep. Allie spends the day letting the puppy follow her around as she does her chores but at the end of the day she doesn't want to leave him. Her parents decide to let her keep him and then Allie is tasked with giving him the perfect name. She reflects on all the different holidays and what makes them special while trying to see if anything about them will help her find the perfect name. The illustrations are very cute and colorful. I think this would be an excellent book for children that love animals.
Thank you NetGaley and author for an opportunity to read and review this book. #EveryDayIsaHolidayBook #NetGalley

This was such a sweet story, and I loved the sprinkling of all the important holidays throughout the book. Plus, I loved the encouragement to support pet shelters!

This book was so adorable! Allie spends a lot of time with animals and was able to bring home a new puppy. She struggles to name him, but the perfect name comes to her.
I enjoyed the story and Allie's reason for her name choice. The illustrations fit the story perfectly as well. I would love to get a copy of this for my classroom when it is published.
As a Speech-Language Pathologist, this book seems easy to ask language-based questions to target common goal areas for students with language IEP goals.
Lastly, I enjoyed the questions for kids to ask at an animal shelter to get their own pet. They are helpful questions that even adults can benefit from learning before adopting pets.
Thank you, NetGalley and the publisher, for the digital ARC in exchange for an unbiased, honest review of the book.

This book is about the family McCray who runs an animal shelter, and sometimes their daughter Allie helps. One day they find an abandoned puppy so they take care of him. Allie struggles to think of a name for their new puppy, and while she’s thinking of a new name, she helps around and does chores. It’s pretty hilarious how where she gets her ideas for the names, but what she ends up choosing is so heartwarming. This book has beautiful fully colored illustrations, as well as a very good story with a good moral lesson. At the end of the book, there are also very informative and important questions about owning a pet which is very much appreciated.
