Twelve Days of Christmas in Oregon

The TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS IN OREGON . . . now in board!

This popular holiday book is now available in a sturdy board edition for very young children. The original text has been simplified to focus on the merry lyrics in this fun take on the classic Christmas song. It’s a happy, festive way for families to celebrate the place where they live.

Welcome to Christmas in the Beaver State! This sturdy board book uses the classic song to showcase some of Oregon’s finest features—like 10 Portland food carts, 7 gray wolves howling, 2 waterfalls, and a meadowlark in a fir tree!
