Items related to The Twelve Days of Christmas
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . . In this beautiful edition of the classic holiday song, a happy couple make their way to a lavish Christmas party, discovering wonderful gifts as they go.
Alison Jay's signature crackle-glaze technique makes this illustrated version of "The Twelve Days of Christmas" luminous and magical: animals dart across the pages, ladies dance, lords leap, and wintery landscapes sparkle against warm, cozy scenes. With hidden surprises on every page, this is a book for the whole family to treasure--and sing along to!--year after year.

Review:
Of all the Christmas books published this year, Alison Jay's The Twelve Days of Christmas has the least chance of being read. That's got nothing to do with it's attractiveness, because its beautiful cracked-paint illustrations conjure warm images of Christmas past. It's due to the fact that even though the order of the drummers drumming and lords a-leaping has been slightly rearranged to suit this courtship story, anyone who opens the pages will be unable to resist singing, rather than reading the familiar words of this traditional verse. -- Pet O'Connell * Evening Echo *
About the Author:
ALISON JAY is a graduate of the London College of Printing and is the acclaimed illustrator of many picture books, including The Cloud Spinner, written by Michael Catchpool, and A Gift for Mama, by Linda Ravin Lodding. Alison's signature style is created using alkyd paint on thick cartridge paper, with a crackle varnish, giving an aged effect.
