    This book exceeded my expectations after I judged the book by it's cover. The message is great and catchy ("at Christmas we give, so I'll give it my all." and the story and illustrations are fun.

    Pete the cat saves the day when Santa needs his help! I think the illustrations of Pete are so funny, the same expression no matter what's going on. I also love that he uses his minibus to help deliver presents for Santa. My favorite part of this book is the repeating them about giving your all.
