Summary: Beautiful
Comment: The intricacy, layout and artistry of this book is amazing. My children (5 and 2) absolutely love it although they do need to be reminded to be careful of the popups but so far it's survived many readings and curious fingers. Absolutely recommended, especially as a gift.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wow!
Comment: This is just a beautiful piece of work. Must confess we haven't had the heart to let our 2 and half years old play with it, though... It'd be a real shame if it got damaged!

Summary: Simply the Best
Comment:
The creativity in use of colors and images, and the attention to detail makes it for a beautiful art. Sabuda does bring the Christmas spirit to your home. In fact, I think that this is one of the best Christmas books around. This is because it is a perfect Christmas gift not only for the smallest of children but for the whole family. Being an adult I also enjoy it. All children at my 9-years-old daughter's class made a big order for Sabuda's "The Twelve Days of Christmas" and "The Night Before Christmas" together with Nowiki's two books from the series "Why some cats are rascals". The teacher's smart idea made for a great savings on shipping costs

Summary: A stunning book to treasure
Comment: What an amazing, beautiful book. Every page has elaborately crafted pop-ups that compliment the well-known poem. Before I showed it to my son I must have spent an hour going back and forth through the pages enjoying the scenes for myself.
An earlier reviewer said that it was a book unsuitable for young children. I would say that it very much depends on the child in question. My 2 year old was thrilled by the book. It was intended for use only over the Christmas period, to be put away and stored until the following festive season. I think we actually managed to put it away in March, not because he tired of it but after repeated discussions about Christmas being over.
Not only did my little boy love the book, but he did not damage it. The book IS delicate and is not for unsupervised use by small children. But if children have reasonable language skills and can be trusted to do what they are told they can enjoy looking at the pictures and listening to the poem while an adult holds the book and turns the pages.
After buying this book I ordered several more copies as gifts for friends' children next Christmas as well as several other books by this unusally talented man.

Summary: Not suitable for under 5s
Comment: I have just returned this book as the pop ups were too scary for my children. Purchasers should note that they are mainly white, elaborate paper cut outs. It definitely did not appeal to my two (5 and 2). The pop ups are very detailed (and therefore subject to potential immediate distruction by anyone aged under 3) but not in the least bit traditional. If you have pre-schoolers my recommendation would be to steer clear of this version of this book. It may appeal to adults/older children, but our family were very disappointed.
