With an informative foreword by John Langstaff, about the origins of the song, and the rural folk customs from which it most likely sprang, and colorful artwork, done in watercolor, gouache and collage by Melissa Sweet, On Christmas Day in the Morning is an appealing holiday title. I wasn't familiar with this song, before picking it up - I immediately thought of another Christmas carol, I Saw Three Ships, when I saw the title - and was pleased to expand my knowledge. I also appreciated the illustrator's note, about the meaning behind the motifs she used, in her decorative borders. There's not much of a story here, but for readers looking for picture-book presentations of Christmas carols and songs, it will still be a winner. ( )
