This book has a beautiful cover, but the inside pages lack any color or real illustrations that enhance the words. The songs for kids could be fun and engaging, but this book fell a bit flat for me.

With a short introduction to Carolling and the words to "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" this book starts off promising. The next pages rewrite the first verse of the song using various letters to begin each work. Yes, it could be silly and fun to sing with a group, but that is all there is to this book. There are no illustrations and it is really not very visually appealing. Not a book I would be recommending. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley.

Kids are going to love learning a new way to sing old songs and adults will enjoy boosting their holiday parties as they join together to add a new version to their musical selections.

McColl starts off with a cute story about the game and the ‘origin’ of the song variations. Then she goes into how to play with some recommendations. She even provides a little historical context for the Christmas songs and the act of caroling which might encourage more people to get in on the fun during the holiday season.

It’s definitely a fun and interesting way to teach/remember the alphabet J

My girls and I tried this out and we couldn’t get very far without them breaking down into laughter from the odd way it sounds at times.

A new approach for childrens books for children through song cleavely written using letters.A fun book to have for children to read and play.

This is a really fun idea for young children who love to sing at Christmastime! Could really liven up schools and parties.
