“The Night Before Christmas": Spotlight on the perfect gift book!

Today, we are focusing on The Night Before Christmas, the magnificent children's book illustrated by Chris Dunn (and narrated by Steve Richardson, based on the poem by Clement C. Moore).

This book is a real gem to place under the Christmas tree. So, with the holidays approaching, we thought it would be nice to tell you a little more about it!

The Night Before Christmas is a story that takes place on Christmas Eve. While all the animals are fast asleep that night, a giant white bear goes from chimney to chimney, carrying a sack full of presents. One bear is awake, but so is a father rabbit who has heard a noise and is in for a big surprise!

Accompanying this illustrated reinterpretation of the famous English Christmas tale are Chris Dunn's magnificent watercolors, which will delight young and old alike. We are gently immersed in a world that carries with it all the magic of childhood.

And if you are still not convinced, we will let the readers speak for themselves, as their reviews say it all!
