Overview

Set in Africa, this beautiful rendition of the classic Christmas carol has a unique twist: colourful icons illustrate the various gifts repeated in each verse of the song, creating a rebus-style text that gives young children a fun way to follow along and chime in with the lyrics. The gorgeous, wonderfully detailed collage illustrations, comprised of colourful kente cloth and cut paper, feature tribal drummers and dancers, traditional clothing and African wildlife, making each scene as visually striking as the last.
