The Twelve days of Christmas illustrated by Brian Wildsmith

 The Twelve Days of Christmas





Once again we have the traditional version of this famous poem. The delight (if you are reading several editions) comes from the wonderful illustrations.  I especially love the page with five gold rings. 


This version of the Twelve Days of Christmas illustrated by the brilliant Brian Wildsmith was first published in 1972 and because it is so special it continues to be reprinted with different covers. See more illustrations here.


This illustrated version of a Christmas classic from one of our most internationally acclaimed picture-book writers and artists deserves a spot under every Christmas tree. LoveReading4Kids

Brain Wildsmith published over seventy books.
