Description

On the first day of Christmas, my parents gave to me: A star-topped little pine tree.

On the second day of Christmas, my parents gave to me: Two candy canes to hang on my little pine tree.

Hey, wait a minute! That's not how "The Twelve Days of Christmas" goes!

In Twelve Days, Gordon Snell brings a modern perspective to a much-loved carol, while Kevin O'Malley's illustrations rill each page to the brim with boundless good cheer. This new countdown to Christmas overflows with holiday decorations as a family joyfully empties the attic to deck their halls. A dash of Christmas magic unexpectedly turns a quiet tree-trimming party into a larger-than-life adventure, complete with a trip to the North Pole and a visit from Santa. Start a new holiday tradition with this warm and wacky Christmas fantasy.
