Description
"Not a creature was stirring--except for the epic-ly huge polar bear squeezing out of the fireplace with a sack of toys--in this ... illustrated re-telling of the classic Christmas story The Night Before Christmas. Families and young readers will [enjoy] the lavish watercolor illustrations of polar bear Santa, Pa Bunny in his cap, [and] the reindeer sweeping across the sky. And of course the story regularly returns to the cozy home of the mouse, who sleeps through all the action"--Back cover.
