The Night Before Christmas -- Written one Christmas Eve and first published anonymously in 1823, this perennial classic was intended to be a gift from a father to his children. Instead, it has become a gift to the world. This Classic Illustrated Edition features the original text and beautiful reproductions of works by some of the most notable illustrators of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This board book edition now brings the classic poem into a format perfect for the smallest hands.

Clement C. Moore was born in 1779. His famous poem was written on Christmas Eve in 1822.
