Absolutely Lucy #7: Lucy's Holiday Surprise

Part of Lucy

Illustrated by Royce Fitzgerald
Celebrate Christmas with the Quinns and this festive chapter book. Adopted twin girls, a precocious pup, and a busy holiday season make Christmas at the Quinns’ house a bit crazy!
 
Bobby is excited to have two adopted baby sisters, but he’s also excited for Christmas. While his parents take care of the babies, Bobby and his beagle, Lucy, play in the snow and even build a snow beagle! But as Christmas gets closer, Bobby starts to worry. His parents haven’t had time to decorate the house, or get a tree, or bake cookies. Will the Quinn family be able to get ready for Christmas before it’s too late? With a little help from friends, family, and one special beagle, they just might!
 
Fans of Puppy Place and Magic Puppy will love this sweet holiday story in the Absolutely Lucy series.
