What the book is about: Tells the story of the old Christmas poem by Clement Clarke Moore.
-Migi 11 years
... and how he came up with the poem. Utterly charming illustrations, the blue(!) snow, the family around the table. What strikes me most about this is how the family Christmas celebration is depicted -- with the children focused on Dad's surprise: not expensive gifts of video games or humongous toys ;), but a POEM, something from Dad's heart, not his pocket. A wonderful read-aloud either at Christmas Eve or on St. Nick's Day.
