About This Book
Celebrate two new books in the merry, popular series: "The Twelve Days of Christmas."..state by state For pure Christmas fun--and a joyful celebration of state pride--there's nothing like the "Twelve Days of Christmas in" series. That's why the first two, devoted to Louisiana and Wisconsin, were instant, sold-out successes.
Based on the beloved holiday song, each book tells a lively tale in letters about two cousins getting together over Christmas vacation. All the happy, chatty notes (one for each of the twelve days) feature entertaining, unusual, and kid-friendly facts about the title state--including Florida's flamingos, Key lime pies, and grinning gators, and New Jersey's fertile crops, famous lighthouses, and sandy beaches.
Every book in the series is written and illustrated by authors and artists with strong ties to the featured state, and three pages at the back offer extra information (such as the capital city, famous natives, state bird, and tree). They're perfect for kids planning to travel for their own holiday...or who are just dreaming of enjoying Christmas somewhere in our magnificent 50 states.
