Irresistibly adorable, this board book from Greg Pizzoli turns our favorite Christmas counting song into a counting book—with elephants. Prereaders can sing along as a young elephant in a Santa hat arrives with a present for the other little elephant in the story (a partridge in a pear tree, of course), and the youngster is delighted. Mum, however, is not so sure, and as turtle doves, French hens, and calling birds pile up, she starts buying bulk bird seed. Animals abound in this version; the milkmaids are mice, the dancing ladies are cats, and the leaping lords are frogs, all drawn in Pizzoli's wide-eyed cartoon style.
