Christmas Countdown Book December 6

On our 6th day to countdown to Christmas Eve, we opened our book and A Pirate’s Twelve Days of Christmas appeared.

On the first day of Christmas, a gift was sent to me: a parrot in a palm tree! Ahoy mateys–Christmas is coming and even pirates celebrate the holiday! This follow-up to the hugely popular A Pirate’s Night Before Christmas offers a witty re-imagining of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”–with a sly buccaneer twist. A brave cabin boy receives marvelously mysterious gifts for each of the 12 days he is left alone to guard the pirate ship: 12 cannons blastin’, 9 mermaids singin’, 6 Jolly Rogers, and so on–but who are they from? With impeccable rhythm and a lively sense of fun, Philip Yates and Sebastià Serra create a delightful world all their own.

We had a blast reading this book this evening; the boys couldn’t hold back their “pirate” voice and just giggled along; which of course got the Princess all hyped up as well. It sure is a fun book and a fun way to count the twelve days of Christmas.

You can grab your very own A Pirate’s Twelve Days of Christmas through Amazon.com or any bookstore near you; this book retails for $14.95;

Don’t forget to come back tomorrow to count down to Christmas Eve with us.
