The Little Drummer Boy by Ezra Jack Keats

ree

A procession travels to Bethlehem, bringing gifts for baby Jesus. The little drummer boy comes along, although he is too poor to bring a present fit for a king. Instead, he plays a song on his drum for baby Jesus. Within the little drummer boy's seemingly simple gift lies the true spirit of Christmas.


Keats' vivid artwork perfectly illustrates this classic holiday carol. Keats evocatively portrays this story.
