A young woman's true love sends her extravagant gifts on each of the twelve days of Christmas.

This well-known folk song is accompanied by a tribute from folksinger Pete Seeger, the musical notation, and a biographical scrapbook with photographs.

'Hush, little baby, don't say a word, I'm gonna show you a mockingbird!' In this beautifully illustrated retelling of the traditional gifting song, Carol Thompson celebrates the unconditional love and warmth that surrounds a cherished infant. With a high emotional content, this is ideal for sharing during a special, quiet time.

"In this adaptation of the traditional nursery rhyme, an astronaut swallows the Moon and other celestial objects, while two children ask questions about the Solar System and outer space." --
