So get it and support Ryan!
His book in case you're wondering. Very funny!
Went out shopping with my gf for one of my childhood friends that recently had a baby and got a cute bunny plush and one of my favourite children's books from my childhood. She also suggested this cute book for friend's baby's first birthday.
Also my mom has been pestering me the past little while on when we're gonna get married. Been giving her the roundabout answer of soon cause even though I wanna marry tf outta my lovely GF, I don't wanna be rushing into it, plus I don't have an engagement ring picked out yet.
The Book With No Pictures is my #1 favorite for creating hysterical laughter.
I try to up the humor of this already funny book by dressing myself in a silly outfit (kid sunglasses, large sunhat, big scarf) and telling them I'm going to read a very serious book and there must be NO laughing. I then proceed to become horrified every time I have to say something silly and keep reminding them they must not laugh!
I think I might like it even more than the kids, lol.
Your mom might like this book since she's a preschool teacher! If you haven't heard of the Humans of New York fb page, you should check it out, it's awesome!
Brother might like this book too, has great reviews, very interactive.
It might be BJ Novak's The Book with No Pictures
He also wrote a great kids book:
The Book With No Pictures
Here is a clip of him reading it to a group of elementary school kids.
The Book With No Pictures is a fun book. It requires some effort from you during the reading but it's sure to get a laugh.
The book with no pictures has a great page of nonsense words to read really fast. ( https://www.amazon.com/Book-No-Pictures-B-Novak/dp/0803741715/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=book+with+no+pictures&qid=1574704377&sr=8-1 )
Also This Little Piggy by Tim Harrington https://www.amazon.com/This-Little-Piggy-Tim-Harrington/dp/0062218085/ref=sr_1_9?keywords=this+little+piggy&qid=1574704395&sr=8-9 Really funny for Preschool Read Alouds because of that wall of text to read really fast!
Update:
Thank you all for your suggestions!! I bought a few of the ones mentioned here as well as some others. I went a little overboard, but I figure I can space out the gifts for later in the year, and some are for her little brother too.
(She's French born, so I made sure to include some American artists in there too.)
Thank you /u/mariposamariposa, and /u/moration!
Edit: For the commenters saying I should just give her princess stuff if that's what she likes - I have and will continue to. This year I spent over 100 hours making her an Elsa from Frozen dress for her birthday. This should be proof enough that I encourage and share her enthusiasm. http://imgur.com/a/ga9DQ
Good reminder for Bob's Burgers. I've been meaning to get back to that.

Here's some books that we liked around Kindergarten:
Really any Tony Diterlizi, Dave Shannon, or Mo Williams books are good.

There's a few things that you should consider:
I think it's admirable that you want to do a book for your nephew, but I think it's an unrealistic goal to aim to have it done by Christmas, and even if you get it done, it will be years before he can actually appreciate it.
