Illustrated by
David Catrow.
Welcome to Noelle's world--Christmas City, Texmas, where it's Christmas 364 days a year. Un-Christmas Day is "the one unmagical nonholiday in Christmas City." No presents, no relatives, no Christmas TV specials, and, on this special day, Noelle and her friends get to go to school! Catrow's exaggerated, Seussian-channeled illustrations match the story's tongue-in-cheek humor.
