In this beloved picture book that could only come from the visionary mind of author and illustrator TIM BURTON, we meet Jack Skellington-- a well-intentioned inhabitant of Halloweenland. Jack is bored of ''''the scaring, the terror, the fright....tired of being something that goes bump in the night''''. And so, in an effort to bring to joy to his town, Jack kidnaps Santa and takes his place as the jolly old elf.

| night before christmas: The Night Before Christmas Clement Clark Moore, 2018-11-20 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house / Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse -From The Night Before Christmas The Night Before Christmas, originally published as A Visit from St. Nicholas on December 23, 1823, in the Troy Sentinel, became America's favorite Christmas poem. After the poem was published anonymously, it was attributed to CLEMENT CLARK MOORE in 1837. However, scholars have debated the identity of the author of this poem and some believe it was written by Henry Livingston, Jr., (1748-1828), a New York farmer who also wrote poetry. The Night Before Christmas has had a great influence on the American notion of Santa Claus and on its tradition of Christmas gift-giving, which, before the poem, had been inspired by the Dutch figure of St. Nicholas. This unique edition of the famed Christmas poem, features the original engravings, from 1849, by T.C. Boyd. This American classic is a great gift for the Christmas season as well as for collectors of traditional American literature. |

Its Christmas Eve and Father Christmas and his reindeer are in full swing, delivering presents to all the good boys and girls, when suddenly disaster strikes as Santa gets a surprise of his own! Will Christmas be ruined this year, or will it be a clean getaway for Santa? Find out in this hilarious and sweet reimagining of Clement C. Moore's classic poem, that is sure to delight both children and their parents alike! This is a beautifully illustrated and unique take on the classic poem that is sure to put a smile on everyones face this Christmas! A word from the author: I absolutely loved Clement C. Moore's poem as a child, but when I grew up and tried to read it to my own children, they did not share my enthusiasm. The book is truly a classic but also a little outdated, but one of my children's biggest gripes was the absence of Rudolph. Poor Clement...he wasn't to know. I felt sad that they couldn't share in my enjoyment of the original, especially as it is is the only story to name all the rendeer (well minus one), so I vowed to try and rewrite this story whilst breathing new life into it. Now tackling what it without a doubt the most famous poem in the English language was not a task that I undertook lightly, but it has been given the seal of approval from my little ones, and I truly belief I have created something original, sweet and funny, whilst maintaining the essence of the original. This year, more than most, we need a little festive cheer. So with that in mind, I hope you enjoy the book, and wish you all a Merry Christmas! |
