"The Night Before Christmas" is Clement Moore's Christmas poem, published by OUP Oxford in paperback (32 pages, in English).
The poem evokes Christmas Eve: while the house sleeps, Santa Claus arrives on his reindeer-drawn sleigh, comes down the chimney and fills the stockings by the fire. Tomie de Paola's illustrations accompany the text and convey the magic and warmth of Christmas.
The text was originally published in 1823; this 2004 edition includes Tomie de Paola's illustrations.
A Christmas classic to read with the family, aimed at a children's audience.
Clement Clarke Moore was an American writer, scholar and real estate developer. He is best known as author of the Christmas poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas", which first named each of Santa Claus's reindeer.
