"A visual treatment of an old poem that's both nostalgic and fresh. Bring this one ho-ho-home." --Kirkus (starred review)
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.
