In this holiday spin-off to the instant New York Times bestseller Dolly Parton's Billy the Kid Makes it Big, Dolly's favorite god-dog is back with a tale about the true meaning of Christmas.

French bulldog Billy the Kid is one lucky pup. He has everything he could ever want: a place in Nashville, a great band, and even a cross-country tour. It's all totally tail-riffic...but he can't help feeling like something's missing. When Billy's band is scheduled to perform at Barkafeller Center on Christmas Day, he'll have to decide what matters most to him: fame or family?

Hilarious and heartwarming, this holiday picture book about the importance of family, friendship, and paw-some music is one the whole family will enjoy.
