Christmas is a time for well-loved traditions and family fun - and this famous festive poem is perfect for sharing with little ones: 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugarplums danced in their heads. And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap...The amazing pop-up scenes and gorgeous illustrations of children, parents and Father Christmas himself ensure that this book will be treasured for a very long time.

Clement C. Moore

Clement C. Moore (1779–1863) was a professor of Oriental and Greek literature at Columbia College (now Columbia University) in New York.

The poem 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' was first published anonymously in 1823 but was later attributed to Moore and was included in an 1844 anthology of his works.

Moore's former land in New York is noted today by Clement Clarke Moore Park where local residents often gather on the last Sunday before Advent for a reading of his most famous poem.
