On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, a partridge in a pear tree... We all know this classic Christmas song, but what if someone really did send you all of those gifts? Where would you put all the geese a-laying? Not to mention the lords a-leaping! Find out in this charming story which is perfect for all the days of Christmas. Features The perfect book for Christmas - readers young and old will be charmed by this wonderful story. Beautifully illustrated throughout by Shirley Hughes who was awarded an OBE for services to children's literature and whose picture book Dogger was voted the nation's favourite Kate Greenaway Medal-winning book of all time. A fun and imaginative back story to the popular Christmas song, The Twelve Days of Christmas. Lovely comic touches in a story that keeps its readers delighted and absorbed with an increasingly absurd set of circumstances.
