Told with a Texas twang, this festive tale features a dozen icons of the Lone Star state. Award-winning storyteller David Davis counts down the twelve days of Christmas, sharing a surprise each day, such as javelinas, boots a'scootin', bluebonnets blooming, and the six flags of Texas. Through fun rhymes and repetition, young readers can sing along as each of darlin's gifts is revealed. Bright illustrations fill the pages of this western romp.
