The Night Before Christmas Reviews
-
These illustrations are so rich and realistic, I feel I can reach into story and join Santa on his journey around the world.
The Christmas tree, adorned with lighted candles, is one I wished I had in my home!
This rendition is magnificent and little ones will love to hear it over and over again! -
Gorgeously illustrated classic edition of “The night before Christmas”. I bought this to read to my baby son and it’s fun to read. I purchased the large board book edition, which would be friendly for young readers. I like that the space on each page is used to the max with full illustrations. I highly recommend this book for a Christmas reading tradition with babies or children.

Beautiful illustrations, with a foldout for the scene where the father first sees St. Nicholas.
