  Put a little bit of sparkle into your Christmas with this glittering collection. Richly illustrated and beautifully designed, this book is a present you will want to open over and over again. There are poems about everything you can think of to do with Christmas - from decorations to food, from parties to presents, and of course the real reason for the celebrations. This is a festive feast for the eyes and for the imagination. It contains a wide-ranging, balanced, and lively collection, with contributions from AA Milne, Tony Mitton, Berlie Doherty and Alfred, Lord Tennyson. It is illustrated in zinging, jewel-like colour with tremendous charm and energy.

  Imagine a sparkling quilt of snow or a frosted window pane, listen out for carol singers or the sound of Santa's sleigh, and follow a star to find a baby in a stable. Here is a festive collection of poetry for children, with poems from Charles Causley, Eleanor Farjeon, Berlie Doherty, A.A. Milne, and many more. Beautifully illustrated by Mark Marshall, Joanne Partis and Melanie Williamson, these are poems to enjoy again and again: from opening the first window on an advent calender to putting away the Christmas decorations on twelfth night. A must for every bookshelf, whether at home or at school.
