Ding Dong! Merrily on High

By Francesca Crespi

Book Overview

Here, beautifully presented in 3-D pop-ups, are five familiar and much-loved carols: O Christmas Tree, Silent Night, We Three Kings, Hark the Herald Angels Sing and Ding Dong Merrily on High. Complemented by the melody line and guitar chords, these carols evoke the traditional spirit of Christmas. Angels climb up to decorate a swirling Christmas tree; a seraphic sphere mysteriously appears in the silent night above a miniature, glowing, Nativity; the Three King's star slowly turns into a rose-window kaleidoscope; hosts of angels wing in flight across the sky; and, in a rousing finale, ranks of small choirboys watch as two choristers take turns to ring the great cathedral bell. This beautiful and ingenious pop-up treasury makes a perfect Christmas gift.

Customer Reviews

Beautiful illustrations!

This book is just beautiful! The illustrations are magical. It makes for such a special book to pull out for Christmas time.

Good looking book

I chose this book for two nieces. They have not had a chance to see it yet, but I think it is a winner.

Quality pop-up book

The quality of the art, both the pictures and design of the pop-ups, make this a great book to read with a young child as it captures the reader's attention as well.
