Sam visits cousin Mia in Illinois and Ethan visits cousin Addison in Oklahoma where both are showered with state-specific gifts, "Twelve Days of Christmas"–style. Letters home to Mom and Dad relate the cultural activities each state has to offer; additional state facts are appended. Children may enjoy trying to count the gifts in the cheesy illustrations. Review covers these titles: The Twelve Days of Christmas in Illinois and The Twelve Days of Christmas in Oklahoma.
