JINGLE BELLS, IN ILLUSTRATED SONG

**********************

I’m still waiting for someone to illustrate ALL (or even more) of Pierpont’s JINGLE BELLS lyrics in a picture book rendition. But while I’m waiting, this illustration by Susan Jeffers is a beautiful delight. It’s got a little surprise at the end, so I have drawn up a simple guitar arrangement to play and sing it. I think it would be fun to sing this version with the guitar and then pick up the limberjack horse to sing it again, with the extra verses.
