Publisher Description:

The 12 Days of Central Valley Christmas is a children's picture book that retells the traditional Christmas carol from a uniquely California point-of-view. The Central Valley provides the settings, creatures, and characters in this reimagining of the familiar holiday song. The vivid and colorful illustrations capture the distinctive features of the Valley in a fun, festive, and educational way. The book provides an opportunity to celebrate a California Christmas through reading (and singing) aloud to children of all ages.

It was written by the same author and illustrator who created That Happiness Thing: A Hometown Fable.

This book is part of a planned trilogy about Christmas in the Central Valley of California.
