Original Christmas poems by contemporary poets David McCord, X. J. Kennedy, John Ciardi, Valerie Worth and others have been especially commissioned for this handsome anthology which also includes some traditional favorites. From the wonder of a Spanish Nativity scene to the excitement of meeting Santa Claus in Key West, Mrs. Livingston's choices reflect the simplicity, majesty, and warmth of Christmas in all of its manifestations. Trina Schart Hyman's illustrations capture the brilliance of the holiday season.
