Here at Laughing Elephant, we have more than fifty versions of this wonderful poem in our library - this is one of our favorites.

This facsimile of a 1917 edition retains the original illustrations and text. Margaret Evans Price has created one of the kindest Santas ever imagined - just look at the cover Laughing Elephant's The Night Before Christmas features the original die-cut shape, with an appealing rounded top.

This is an ideal first Night Before Christmas for a young child. Read it before bedtime and watch the young ones drift off to sleep with visions of sugarplums in their heads. All is calm, all is bright.
