This lavish presentation of the traditional Christmas song features Robert Sabuda's ingenious cut-out illustrations which re-create the scenes--from a partridge in a pear tree to the twelve lords-'a-leaping--in a very untraditional way! Colorful backgrounds combine with white pop-ups for a knockout effect, featuring lavish touches such as gold foil, acetate, mylar, a cloth spine, a special paper stock, and a one-of-a-kind pop-up snow globe. Full color.

"Every verse is garnished with a poetic twist, and the movement of the pop-up creations are part of the poetry....A holiday treasure that, with careful use, will become an heirloom."

Kirkus, 09/01/1996

"...a three-dimensional tour de force, bold and extravagant....this does things you will not have expected a book could do, while capitalizing on the essential magic of its ability to tuck neatly back into itself and sit on a shelf in inconspicuous anticipation, like a gift waiting to be opened."

Deborah Stevenson, Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, September 1996
