If you're looking for a Jingle Bells sing-along book, look for something larger, with more than the chorus of ...

In David Christiana's spirited interpretation of this beloved Christmas carol, the heavenly hosts have to push, pull, and prod a pack of ornery critters just so you can have your nativity scene (and a couple of giggles, too)!
