This story has adventure, romance, a little magic, and mystery all swirled into a story that is sure to delight all ages. I will be adding this to my yearly lineup for the holidays moving forward. This is a modern retelling of the song the 12 days of Christmas. I would have loved to hear this read by another narrator but overall a really fun read for this time of year! 🎄

Very clever!

This book was very different than most of his works but I enjoyed it very much.

cute

The silliness of assuming the characters didn't know what was coming after the first couple of days was too much for me. It is farfetched by any stretch of the imagination but it was a light listen for a holiday road trip. I would never recommend it though.

It's dumb, but entertaining.
