Reach for this book when your child feels like they do not quite fit in or when they are struggling to find their unique place in a group. Olive is a sweet dog who mishears the lyrics to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and becomes convinced she is actually a reindeer. Despite the confusion, she travels to the North Pole to help Santa. This quirky, modern holiday classic explores themes of belonging, self-confidence, and how our supposed weaknesses or differences can actually be our greatest strengths. It is a perfect choice for children aged 3 to 7 who enjoy humor and a slightly absurdist take on traditional holiday tropes. Parents will appreciate the message that being yourself, even if you are a bit confused, is the best way to contribute to a team.
