  • The Twelve Days of Christmas Book and Audio CD Set

    Jan Brett, Steve Blane

    Accessory (Scholastic Book Clubs Softcover Book and Audio CD, Jan. 1, 2005)
    "On the first day of Christmas, / my true love gave to me / a partridge in a pear tree." A straightforward beginning to a carol that grows increasingly complicated as both the list of presents and the numbers involved accumulate. Brett's lavish treatment of the song portrays various levels of meaning. She has illustrated the fantastic gifts in outrageous splendor, turned them into a border of tree decorations, included a menagerie of animals carrying banners with "Merry Christmas" in different languages, and trimmed the edges of each page with an ongoing story about a family's preparations for the big day itself. In the final frame, the decorated tree serves as the centerpiece for the family's own caroling. The artist demonstrates, once again, that she will not relinquish a project before every last glorious detail is in place. The clarity of her vision is stunning.
