The Twelve Days of Christmas

The Twelve Days of Christmas by Britta Teckentrup
 
Follow the familiar Christmas song as each extravagant gift joins the celebration, from a partridge in a pear tree to twelve drummers drumming. Britta Teckentrup’s richly patterned illustrations and cleverly placed peep-through pages let the festive scene build with every turn.
 
The cumulative rhyme makes this a joyful book to sing, count and revisit together. Children can anticipate what comes next, spot earlier gifts through the layered die-cuts and join in more confidently each time—a beautifully designed celebration of rhythm, repetition and Christmas tradition.
