Review:

"Attractively styled, colorfully illustrated collection of poems, carols, and traditional songs.... Most of the poets and even some of the traditional verses will be new to American readers.... The four artists commissioned to create the illustrations have varying, distinct styles that add greatly to the appeal of the compilation."--School Library Journal "Attractively styled, colorfully illustrated collection of poems, carols, and traditional songs....
