And golden bells
And green icicles
And silver stars
And red and green and blue and purple chains of shining Christmas balls.

This treasured story by the legendary Margaret Wise Brown has been newly illustrated by award-winning artist Jim LaMarche. Warm, glowing paintings complement the gentle text to capture the true heart of Christmas.
