An African-American family and their guests prepare for Christmas as the text counts twice from one to ten. They sing and wrap presents, eat cookies, and pack baskets for the needy. The figures are made from cut paper and fabric against a white background, creating crisp, colorful, loving visions of the family-oriented traditions of the season.
