The beauty and spirit of Christmas resounds in the melodic chimes of a church bell in this lyrical picture book by well-known author Tony Johnston with breathtaking illustrations by watercolor artist Cheng-Khee Chee. On Christmas Eve, people bundle up in the cold and follow the sounds of the bell to gather in celebration. Creatures great—children, dogs, cats, and birds—and small stop to listen as a brass band marches through town. The poetry and imagery of these verses and the classic feel of this lush artwork make for a memorable Christmas read-aloud.

      The sound of Christmas chimes from "an icicle-pointed steeple" calling a community together to celebrate "this calm and holy night," in Johnston's (Cat, What Is That?
      ) joyful picture book. People young and old (and very cold!) gather in a quaint town square gaily lit by street lamps, twinkling holiday tree lights and warm smiles. With a wet-paper watercolor technique (explained in an artist's note) Chee (Old Turtle
      ) achieves gently smudged, impressionistic images of the wondrous Christmas Eve proceedings. Ages 5-8.
