Book summaryRobert Sabuda’s stunning pop-up version of the popular Christmas song is an explosion of shimmering white pop-ups with boldly colored backgrounds and masterful silhouettes. Replete with ballerinas, pears, and birds, the inventiveness of the pop-ups promises to thrill everyone from young children to adult.Media Reviews"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 "...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 Publisher NotesThis 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.
