Illustrated by
Lynne Avril Cravath.
Jake (Wisconsin) and Rosalie (Louisiana) send their out-of-state cousins one state-specific gift per day during the twelve days of Christmas. The books' cheerful illustrations get ever more crowded as the presents accumulate. Jake and Rosalie explain their selections in chatty notes that can be overly explanatory. Additional state facts are appended. Review covers these titles: The Twelve Days of Christmas in Louisiana and The Twelve Days of Christmas in Wisconsin.
