Synopsis :

Just in time for the holiday season, Ezra Jack Keats?s The Little Drummer Boy is now available in a durable board-book edition. Rich, expressive illustrations bring the words and music of the beloved Christmas song to life in a format perfect for the youngest readers.

Revue de presse: This handsome picture book revisits the timeless holiday song about the poor drummer boy who learns that the most valuable gifts are those given from the heart. Rich, textured images spring from the pages, their radiant gold and red earth tones balanced by warm blue and green hues. Rodanas evokes the boy's gentle persona through soft colors and the simple line work of the child's drum, and then uses bold colors for the kings' robes and and strong textile patterns in Mary's garments. The contrast effectively reinforces the musical rhythm and movement of the text.
Booklist, ALA

"A beautiful demonstration of the true meaning of Christmas." Kirkus Reviews

When commercialism threatens to overtake the season, this song reminds readers that a gift from the heart brings great joy to both the giver and the receiver.
