description: On the first day of grade school, the students love their teacher so much that they give her a python -- one that doesn’t squeeze her. On the second day, they give her two buzzing bees. On the third day she receives three fat rats, on the fourth four burping goats, on the fifth... and the days and presents just keep coming! Emily Brenner’s clever classroom take on the classic "Twelve Days of Christmas" song and Bruce Whatley’s hilarious illustrations will have kids and teachers caroling all year long! Emily Brenner is the author of several children’s books. She lives in New York with her husband and children. Bruce Whatley is the illustrator of numerous picture books, including all things bright and beautiful by Cecil Frances Alexander, here comes santa claus by Gene Autry and Oakley Haldeman, and the night before christmas by Clement C. Moore. He is both the author and illustrator of wait! no paint!, and he collaborated with his wife, Rosie Smith, on detective donut and the wild goose chase and captain pajamas. Mr. Whatley lives with his family on a farm in Australia.
