John Julius Norwich
The Twelve Days of Christmas
New York: St. Martin's Press, 1998
First printing
A hilarious re-telling of the traditional Christmas song 'A Partridge in a Pear Tree', in the form of letters from the increasingly panicked recipient of her lover's gifts.
Who really wants seven swans a'swimming or ten Lords a'leaping, for example.
Illustrated by Quentin Blake.
Highly recommended.
