(2) PS Setting this traditionally European holiday song in Africa, Isadora uses her now-familiar fabric and painted paper collages to create a lively cross-cultural picture book. The drummers, dancers, and leapers hail from different parts of the continent, explained in an appended map and author's note. Neat design features accommodate the text's cumulative nature and give pre-readers a way to participate.
