In this bright, humorous rendition of a favorite Christmas song, award winning author August E. Allen celebrates the countdown to Christmas a bit differently.
A unique and humorous approach to The Twelve Days of Christmas:
On the first day of Christmas, my true love did not offer a partridge in a pear tree, but rather a BIG cat in my pine tree! My true love did, however, give me ten lords a-leaping on the tenth day of Christmas except they were much smaller, with very long ears, and unfortunately they weren’t all a-leaping because one was a-sleeping.
Allen’s adorable hand-painted illustrations bring the sentiment and whimsy of the classic song to life with energetic spirit and a twist! Seriously, who needs nine ladies dancing when you can have nine nifty penguins!
Here we have seven carolers caroling…
Well, sort of. One caroler is not singing because he is quite unhappy with the pitch, and another caroler is a bit preoccupied with catching snowflakes on her tongue.
And here we have six mice a-hiding (sorry, no geese a laying)!
Twelve birds a-peeping
There really are twelve, but two would not join this picture; they thought it was ridiculous trying to cram twelve birds into one very tiny place such as this so they are on another page.
All full page hand-drawn artwork in The Twelve Days of Christmas is printed with the highest quality inks on premium weight paper, robustly bound and tucked inside a durable glossy soft cover!
