Review Quotes: "Employing the source material's foundation, Robinson adapts the lyrics to include culturally significant actions, items, and entities. Straightforward text contextualizes each adapted lyric, while Hummingbird depicts wide-eyed characters engaging in yuletide scenes. A holiday read-aloud that begs for multiple recitations."-- "Publishers Weekly"
