It’s Christmas! It’s Christmas!
Let’s vibe with good cheer.
Let’s break out the classics
we share once a year.
 
We recite Christmas poems
and sing carols with soul.
We all get together
to let the good times roll!

Gather around and celebrate the warmth of the season with enchanting photographs by the husband-and-wife duo behind CreativeSoul Photography. Festive favorites—from “Jingle Bells”and “Silent Night“to A Christmas Carol and The Nutcracker—are reimagined and paired with glittering photos that capture the beauty of Black and brown children. Like the perfect sugar cookie or most beautifully wrapped gift, every spread brims with holiday cheer.
 
In this dazzling book, perfect for gift giving, bestselling creators Regis and Kahran Bethencourt shake up Christmas with their iconic flare.
