On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, a partridge in a pear tree . . .
We all know this classic Christmas song, but what if someone really did send you all of those gifts? Where would you put all the geese a-laying? Not to mention the lords a-leaping!
Find out in this charming story which is perfect for all the days of Christmas.
Jenny Overton grew up in a Surrey village that is still her home today. After taking a degree in English she spent most of her working life as an editor and wrote several books for children. She wrote The Thirteen Days of Christmas as a story for her younger sister. Shirley Hughes is one of the nation's best-loved illustrators for children. She has created some of the most enduring characters in children's literature and for this she was honoured with an
OBE in 1999. She has been the recipient of many prestigious awards, including twice winning the Kate Greenaway Medal.
