Editorial Reviews

About the Author

Clement Clarke Moore, (1779-1863), was a professor at New York City's General Theological Seminary (built on land donated by his father) who, in an 1836 reprint of A Visit From St. Nicholas (more commonly known today as Twas the Night Before Christmas), was first credited as the author of the poem, and later included it in an anthology of his work.

The work of New York Times bestselling children’s book illustrator Charles Santore has been widely exhibited in museums and celebrated with recognitions such as the prestigious Hamilton King Award, the Society of Illustrators Award of Excellence, and the Original Art 2000 Gold Medal from the Society of Illustrators. He is best known for his luminous interpretations of classic children’s stories, including The Little Mermaid, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Snow White, and The Wizard of Oz.

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.

"Charles Santore's breathtaking [books] include the nostalgia-laden The Night Before Christmas, a Snow White whose evil queen exhibits the kind of chilling sensuality we associate with Swinburne's poetry, The Wizard of Oz wonderfully reimagined, and a rumbustious Aesop's Fables, as well as half dozen other children's favorites."
-- Michael Dirda, The Washington Post

I was familiar with this story long before purchasing, but was pleased to add this classic to our family collection. For the month of December, I wrapped up and numbered 24 Christmas books to read throughout the month. Naturally, this was book #24 for 12/24 and really brought me such joy (the baby liked it too). A fun tradition with a beautiful, classic book.

We all know this poem. But to read this poem accompanied by these gorgeous illustrations makes this classic a true treasure. 2023 marked the 200th anniversary of 'Twas The Night Before Christmas and what better way to celebrate than to share this story and poem in this richly illustrated quality printing of a timeless classic.

I gave this book to my one-year old nephew so that his parents could read it to him in Christmas Eve and start a family tradition. He loved it and paid attention to what was being said. The Santa Claus picture on the front is so special and joyful. I recommend it.
