About this audiobook

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Join Llama Llama as he prepares to celebrate the holiday season in this festive story that reminds readers about the true importance of gift-giving.

Gifts are nice,
But there’s another—
The true gift is
We have each other.

The holidays are getting close, but if there’s one thing Llama Llama doesn't like, it's waiting. He and Mama Llama rush around, shopping for presents, baking cookies, decorating the tree . . . but how much longer until the special day arrives? Will it ever come? Finally, Llama Llama just can't wait anymore—he wants his presents now! It takes a cuddle from Mama Llama to remind him that the true meaning of the holiday season is not the gifts, but celebrating with those you love the most.

Complete with simple rhyming text, this heartwarming story is the ideal way to introduce children to what the holidays are really about.

About the author

Anna Dewdney was a teacher, mother, and enthusiastic proponent of reading aloud to children. She continually honed her skills as an artist and writer and published her first Llama Llama book in 2005. Her passion for creating extended to home and garden and she lovingly restored an eighteenth-century farmhouse in southern Vermont. She wrote, painted, gardened, and lived there with her partner, Reed, her two daughters, two wirehaired pointing griffons, and one bulldog. Anna passed away in 2016, but her spirit will live on in her books.
