About this title

About the Author:

Hilary Knight began his career as a book illustrator in collaboration with Kay Thompson, producing in quick succession Eloise, Eloise in Paris, Eloise at Christmastime, and Eloise in Moscow, and then with Lee Bennett Hopkins, Side by Side and Happy Birthday. His own books include Where's Wallace? and the recent reissue of Hilary Knight's The Owl and the Pussy-cat, based on the poem by Edward Lear. He is a contributing artist for Vanity Fair magazine, living and working in New York City and Long Island, not far from Roslyn, where it all began.

From Publishers Weekly:

Readers can sing along to Hilary Knight's edition of The Twelve Days of Christmas (1981). A bear courts his beloved with a bevy of woodland gifts (the 12 frog "lords a-leaping" are especially noteworthy); a surprise awaits in a concluding foldout spread.
