Mariah Carey turned her iconic holiday tune into an adorable Christmas storybook. While the Christmas season is still many months away, this new book is sure to inspire some early holiday spirit.
The book is based on Carey's 1994 holiday hit 'All I Want For Christmas Is You.' The heartwarming tale shares the same name as the song and centers around a girl who desperately wants a Jack Russell Terrier for Christmas. The story is illustrated by Colleen Madden, who also did the animation for Carey's 'Heartbreaker' music video.
Although the classic tune was released over 20 years ago, the song continues to be a staple on holiday playlists around the world. The new Christmas storybook helps the song continue to inspire holiday memories each year.
