"The Night Before Christmas"

There may well be no other Holiday poem that has been so thoroughly illustrated and published in the Western World.  So including it in my review of Holiday Children's Books meant picking the right version.  You might think this a daunting task, but in truth the choice was obvious.  I give you the 1948 publication complete with illustrations commissioned for it by the artist, Granda Moses!  How could anything be more quintessentially American?
