From The Metropolitan Museum, this Christmas treasury of
stories, poems, recipes, and songs is sure to light up the holiday
season



It's the most wonderful time of the year, and this richly illustrated
treasury celebrates everything there is to love about the holiday
season! It's filled with favorite Christmas stories, such as " 'Twas the
Night Before Christmas" and "Little Women, A Merry Christmas," and
songs as well as original poems from Lee Bennett Hopkins, Naomi Shihab
Nye, and others; original recipes from Erin Gleeson, Yvette van Boven,
and Yotam Ottolenghi; and other holiday trappings. All the artwork is
from the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, ranging from religious
paintings depicting the Nativity, to 20th-century illustrations showing
Santa Claus, to wintry scenes of snowy landscapes and ice skaters. With
beautiful art and joyful text, this is a wonderful book for the entire
family to share.
