About this book
"A Visit From Saint Nicholas" by Clement Clarke Moore is a poem first published in 1823. It tells the story of a father who awakens on Christmas Eve to witness Santa Claus arriving in his sleigh pulled by eight reindeer, delivering presents down the chimney. This beloved work has shaped modern American conceptions of Santa Claus and transformed Christmas gift-giving traditions. Though Moore claimed authorship in 1837, questions about whether Henry Livingston Jr. actually wrote it have sparked ongoing scholarly debate. (This is an automatically generated summary.) A fun and wonderfully illustrated version of Night Before Christmas.
