The Twelve Days of Christmas Reviews

Praise for Laurel Long's The Twelve Days of Christmas:

Here's a song whose lyrics everyone knows and that therefore demands something spectacular to distinguish it. This version, sumptuously illustrated by Long, certainly delivers.
-The New York Times

Ms. Long has secreted lyrical clues within each picture that children will relish hunting down.
-The Wall Street Journal

* Long expertly weaves religious and secular images into a visually arresting interpretation of the traditional carol.
-Publishers Weekly, starred review

An accomplished visual interpretation with a playful element for children to enjoy.
-Booklist

This version has a dreamy, fairy-tale sensibility.
-Kirkus Reviews

Long's lyrical and lush oil paintings, reminiscent of Russian icon art, combined with a tricky interactive element, make this version of the traditional carol special.
-School Library Journal
