The Night Before Christmas

The Night Before Christmas

by Clement Moore

HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS | October 15, 1999 | Hardcover

No poem better expresses the magic and excitement of Christmas Eve than Clement C. Moore's "The Night Before Christmas." Now, acclaimed illustrator Bruce Whatley has brought this favorite poem to life with stunning illustrations that perfectly capture all the joy of the Christmas holiday season. The snowy New England landscapes, the eight flying reindeer, and Saint Nicholas himself are all gloriously rendered, and will make this version of the classic poem a Christmas tradition in its own right.

    A Sad Disappointment

    Carroll Merritt

    13 months ago

    I was really hopeful that this book would be part of our family Christmas Tradition. Sadly, the artwork at times was to say the lest disturbing. Santa looked like a demon elf and my sons were a bit frightened of the image. If you are looking for a delightful cheerful illustrated version pass this one by. Next time I will go into the store and preview the book first!

    Robert Sabuda books are amazing. The main picture, as well as the side pages, is very intricate. I would highly recommend this book for older children or for younger children with grownup help.

    A classic keepsake

    Another Robert Sabuda book to add to your collection. He takes a well known classic and uses clever, detailed pop-ups to illustrate the story. Watch out for the two reindeers that jump out at you. As typical of Sabuda, he saves the best for the last page!

About the Author

Clement C. Moore (1779?1863), an American scholar and poet, first wrote The Night Before Christmas in 1822 to entertain his children. A friend submitted it to a local newspaper, The Troy Sentinel, where it was published on December 23, 1823. Moore's delightful description of St. Nicholas and his eight flying reindeer has since become the definitive portrait of Santa Claus.
