内容简介
From Publishers Weekly Unlike dePaola's recent An Early American Christmas， which shows the dawn of holiday jubilance in a New England village， this book portrays the more serene aspects of Christmas， of reverance and religious imagery. The selections are mostly familiar"O， Come All Ye Faithful，" "I Saw Three Ships，" "Good King Wenceslas，" "Bring a Torch， Jeannette， Isabella!"with some lesser-known songs as well: "The Cherry Tree Carol" and " 'Twas in the Moon of Wintertime." But well-known or not， the carols are lovingly placed among pictures with varied settings: Victorian and biblical， some on gatefold pages. DePaola's intense huesslate blues， rich burgundies and mossy greensreflect the way colors show up in a wintry background. His Christmas spirit， here of subdued joy， is infectious. All ages.
