Merry Christmas to all and to all a goodnight!
On Christmas Eve night, a family has set out cookies and milk for a special visitor while a delightful winter cityscape dazzles outside.

But when a clatter wakes up one child and they glimpse St. Nick's sleigh and eight reindeer from the window a magical meeting occurs.
New York Times bestselling illustrator Lauren Semmer reimagines a holiday favorite with her signature vibrant and playful art, perfect for families to read and pore over during the Christmas season. ,

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Clement C. Moore (1779-1863), an American scholar and poet, first wrote "The Night Before Christmas" in 1822 to entertain his children. A friend submitted it to a local newspaper, the Troy Sentinel, where it was published on December 23, 1823. Moore's delightful description of St. Nicholas and his eight flying reindeer has since become the definitive portrait of Santa Claus.
