Synopsis
From Alex T. Smith, the creator of festive favourites such as How Winston Delivered Christmas and The Grumpus, comes a gorgeously illustrated Christmas classic. Re-written and illustrated, Grandma is Overly Generous: A Retelling of The Twelve Days of Christmas is a small hardback perfect for any child this Christmas.
On the first day of Christmas my Grandma sent to me . . .
Grandma's presents may start off sensible – a partridge is easy enough to take care of – but her generosity soon gets wildly out of hand . . .
A witty new take on the festive classic The Twelve Days of Christmas.
