The Night Before Christmas

About The Night Before Christmas

This classic holiday poem makes a perfect Christmas gift or stocking stuffer for children of all ages—and the young at heart!

’Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house . . .

Clement Clarke Moore’s timeless poem about Christmas Eve is beautifully brought to life by illustrator Lisbeth Zwerger and her unique interpretation of Santa’s fantastic midnight visit. The poem—originally titled, “A Visit from St. Nicholas”—is in large part responsible for the conception of the Santa Claus recognized today and is artistically rendered in this picture book full of holiday spirit.
