The Twelve Cats of Christmas

Ages 0 And Up, Grades P to 17

Celebrate the holidays with twelve adorable cats—and one kitten—with this festive feline take on the classic carol The Twelve Days of Christmas!

On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love gave me cats:

FOUR on the gifts,

THREE dressed up,

TWO batting bows,

and a kitten under the tree.

From chasing ribbons and shredding paper to cuddling by the fire and climbing the Christmas tree (uh-oh), the sweet and mischievous kitties teach readers of all ages to enjoy the holiday season in true feline fashion. With festive illustrations and irresistible text that invites readers to read—or sing!—aloud, this charming Christmas picture book is guaranteed to delight all.

CHRISTMAS IS BETTER WITH CATS: No furry companion celebrates Christmas better than the universally beloved cat! With amusing, relatable antics that will have cat people chuckling in recognition, this book's cast of kitties bring good cheer to the most wonderful time of the year.

A TRULY SPECIAL GIFT: From charming illustrations to an embossed jacket embellished with vibrant gold foil, this one-of-a-kind holiday book makes a wonderful gift.

HEARTWARMING AND HUMOROUS: This joyful Christmas story combines the warmth and spirit of a timeless holiday classic with the funny and familiar quirks of cats—from their ability to squeeze into small spaces to their penchant for bird-watching, and more.
