Night Before Christmas

A classically illustrated edition of a perennial Christmas favorite. To readers of all ages, the classic words Twas the night before Christmas . . . evoke images of St. Nick and his Christmas Eve journey. Written in 1822, the poem introduced families nationwide to a uniquely American Santa, one with rosy cheeks who flies through the air with eight tiny reindeer. Nearly 200 years later, the tale remains a Christmas favorite, and Moore’s right jolly old elf still fills the dreams of every child at Christmas time.
