The Night Before Christmas - Illustrated by Arthur Rackham

The Night Before Christmas tells a lyrical story full of Christmas morning excitement. The whispered promise of St. Nicholas visiting with his eight magical reindeer and a sleighful of toys has brought joy to the hearts of readers for generations.

Written and published by Clement Clarke Moore in 1823, this timeless children's poem creates a lasting image of the jolly, round-bellied man that inspired many modern imaginings of Father Christmas.
