The Worst Twelve Days of Christmas

by Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen

Ryan Wood (Illustrator)

In this spirited reworking of the classic "Twelve Days of Christmas", a young girl has to deal with her first Christmas with a new baby brother - and nothing could be worse. He drools on the ornaments and ruins the presents, and he's on the verge of taking over the whole holiday. A sweet surprise turns the tables on the older sister, who eventually appreciates what her baby brother adds to the holiday. This is a funny holiday book with a heart-warming sibling acceptance angle.

Love! I really love the artistry. Neat to read this is the illustrators first children's book. I hope he has many more. The story is great. I was concerned at first, but it goes well. A great family read, especially for that uncertain and new older sibling.

 

Ryan Wood is a concept artist and illustrator. This is his first picture book. He lives in Utah.
