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.

A beautiful collection of christmas poems, lovely festive illustrations, It is a book for the whole family to enjoy!
from Christmas is coming-
Waiting for christmas, the days dawdle by, but the christmas tree is up, (easily two metres high)
to christmas day and even new years eve!-I wish I'd been present at christmas past
I wish I'd been a shepherd and heard the angles sing, I wish I'd been to Bethlehem and seen the Infant King.
There are traditional christmas poems with the christmas nativity as its theme and funny poems about mistletoe & mincemeat. A truly love collection of christmas poems, a book that will be brought out every year for years to come! Well worth buy!

What a beautiful book, full of christmas poems and also songs, my daughter (7) loves it and has copied some of the poems to put in her christmas cards. We sit down every day and read a different poem or sing a song and my 2 year old loves to look at the pictures too. So pleased with this purchase.

Great poems for little kids.

We bought this for christmas for our youngest child. It is lovely with great illustrations. The poems are age appropriate, (under 8 years), and it was fun to read it over the christmas period.
We have a number of the "Oxford Book of..." and they have all been wonderful. For older children try the "Oxford Book Of Christmas Poems". It has a mixture of recent and older poems.
