Twelve Days of Christmas: [Correspondence] by John Julius Norwich
Everyone knows The Twelve Days of Christmas, but not as rewritten by John Julius Norwich in this delightful correspondence, which records the daily thank-you letters from one increasingly bemused young lady to her unseen admirer. And who but Quentin Blake could exploit the full comic possibilities of this hilarious debacle as first birds, then maids and finally the full percussion section of the Liverpoool Philharmonic create mayhem in the calm of an English country Christmas?

Loosely Based On The Twelve Days of Christmas Emily. Jan 3. As I write this letter, ten disgusting old men are prancing up and down all over.

How can I ever express my pleasure. Thank you a hundred times for thinking of me this way. Just imagine two turtle doves. I'm just delighted at your very thoughtful gift. They are just adorable. Aren't you the extravagant one. Now I must protest.
The Jokes. Is There A Santa Claus? What a delightful gift. I couldn't have been more surprised. Just imagine, two turtle doves
