A parade of porkers appears in five Christmas songs, including "Jingle Bells," "Up on the Housetop," and "We Wish You a Piggie Christmas." The funniest of Fine's illustrations appears in "The Twelve Days of Christmas," as turtles waving peace signs, hens wearing berets, pigeons squawking on cell phones, and a host of other guests overwhelm a bespectacled pig. Full of bright color and visual jokes, this offering is high-spirited fun.
