Peppa Pig—the perky star of an animated TV series that airs on Nick Jr.—saves Christmas (for her friends, anyway) in this light story. Santa’s list blows away (“Ho, ho-uh-oh!”) just before he slides down Peppa’s chimney. Peppa and her brother are waiting for him by the tree (a bit oddly, since they were last seen falling asleep). Peppa tells Santa what each of her friends is asking for, so he knows what gifts to deliver where. Though the book’s digital art is plenty cheerful, Peppa’s personality and humor are fairly subdued in this holiday outing. Ages 2–5. (Sept.)
