James Lord Pierpont wrote the song "Jingle Bells" for Sunday-school children to perform at a Thanksgiving concert in 1857. It is now an irreplaceable part of Christmas celebrations around the world. This exquisite cut-paper edition, with elegant illustrations by Niroot Puttapipat, captures the thrill of sleigh riding and the magic of the season. The scene transforms with the turn of each page, showing a sleight ride across a snowy landscape. It's the perfect book to share during the holidays and to treasure forever.

After reading Puttapipat's recent picture-book retelling of The Nutcracker, and finding the illustrations simply breathtaking, I decided I had to track down more of this talented artist's work. I requested Jingle Bells: A Magical Cut-Paper Edition from the library, and greatly enjoyed poring over it, even though the holidays have already passed. The silhouettes here reminded me at times of Jan Pieńkowski's work, and at other times of Arthur Rackham's illustrations in this style, both of which comparisons are high praise indeed! Puttapipat's work is by turns stark and lush, with pages that are delicately cut at the top into the shapes of trees and buildings, giving the entire book a fairy-tale-like feeling. Recommended to anyone who is a fellow admirer of this artist's style, as well as to anyone looking for beautiful picture-book presentations of the Jungle Bells song. ( )
