  | Full Text Reviews: School Library Journal - 10/01/2016 PreS-Gr 2—Instagram stars Prissy and Pop are miniature pigs, and this cute story has them getting ready for Christmas. Dressed in adorable sweaters, dresses, and onesies, these real animals stand next to props to look like they are baking cookies, practicing "Jingle Bells," cutting out paper snowflakes, and generally anticipating Santa's arrival. Pages opposite the stylized photographs describe the pigs' speech and actions at length. On Christmas morning, Prissy and Pop open many presents but proclaim that they are each other's best gift. VERDICT Because the narrative is centered on images meant to elicit an "awwww," the story is hardly memorable, but pig lovers will get a kick out of this stocking stuffer.—Rita Law, Los Angeles Public Library - Copyright 2016 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
