The Grinch by Doctor Suess is a Christmas classic, of course, but I always think of him as being green even though he's not in the book.
I like this one, but poor Max wouldn't make it into the frame
Happy ending?
I love Olivia so Olivia Helps With Christmas is a good option.
I like the idea of a religious book, but most of them have cheesy illustrations. This was my favorite option from my collection. It's The First Night by B.G. Hennessy with paintings by Steve Johnson & Lou Fancher. I really want a vertical picture, but this horizontal one is my favorite.
This vertical picture of Mary with Jesus is so sweet, but I would have to crop it way too much to make it work.
There's also something sweet about the Tomie De Paola illustration from Santa's Crash-Bang Christmas by Steven Kroll, but again, it's horizontal.
And If I was going to go with a horizontal option, this illustration from Santa Calls by William Joyce. It's just so magical.
This title page from Olive the Other Reindeer by J. Otto Siebold is one of my favorite options. It's simple and cheerful.
And my other favorite option is from Santa Claus the World's Number One Toy Expert by Marla Frazee. The cover would look good.
And I also love this page of Santa listening to children's requests.
So do you have a favorite? Which one would you choose or would it be another option?

I think this is probably my favorite Olivia option. Do you?

Olive & Ian and the snowman is my favorite. Followed by the Olive title page and The #1 Toy Expert cover.
definitely Olivia the the snowman.
I love Olive and the #1 toy expert options :)
i love them all!! can you do some prints w/ your friend here in columbus and sell them on etsy!?! i haven't read some of those books, i'll have to check them out at the library. thanks for always sharing your ideas!
While I have a soft spot for the classic Grinch drawings, I'd personally choose either the Olivia "snowman" or PRESENTS!
my favorite is the grinch coming out of the chimney.
My favorite is the Olivia picture with her siblings and all the presents under the tree. Captures the joy of Christmas morning with children perfectly.
I like them all...
I would probably pick something out of When Mrs. C. Saved Christmas...I don't think the book is currently in print -- but I love the drawings {more of a vintage look}...I don't think you could go wrong with any of your choices!
I'd do the Grinch in the Chimney - and get my friend Stephanie to colorize the Grinch -
