Kurzbeschreibung
Delicate cut-paper illustrations let readers peek ahead to the next scene in this elegant edition of a classic poem evoking the anticipation of Christmas Eve.
Clement C. Moore’s "Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas," first published in 1825, spurred a revision of Yuletide traditions with its image of a merry Santa Claus beloved by children around the world. Now a cut-paper edition of the poem, with exquisite illustrations by Niroot Puttapipat, elicits the magic of the season through moonlit silhouettes. With scenes that transform with the turn of each page, revealing the fine details and decorations of a festive family home, this keepsake edition features a final pop-up spread that captures all the excitement of a special night.

A few years I thought it would be a neat idea to collect Clement Moore books but I gave up after buying less than twelve. The quality of the Illustrations was too poor to make it worthwhile, especially as there are dozens of versions in print and that doesn't take account of out-of-print editions that can be picked up cheaply.
My criticism, though, doesn't apply to this wonderful edition by illustrator Niroot Puttapipat. His version looks at the classic poem in a totally new way: as silhouette art. A brilliant idea but in a way so obvious yet I bet this the only version like it. The illustrations have a finesse and quality that make you wish the book had twice as many pages. Charming as the first nine spreads are it's not until you open the last two pages and the pop-up opens that you just look in amazement.
The book not only has beautiful illustrations but it is also well designed, too. The typography, paper and printing lift this edition way above the usual TNBC editions though I would like to recommend Richard Sabuda's pop-up version (it's still available). Equally as beautiful as Puttapipat's but the poem is treated in a flat-colour graphic way with amazing pop-ups.
It may be that these two versions of this favourite Christmas poem are best ever published, I certainly think so.

Oh My!

I collect Night Before Christmas books. I found this one a few days ago at a children's store. It is so incredibly beautiful. It has silhouettes, cut-outs, and ends with an insanely beautiful pop-up. I love kids but this is not a book for children -- it is a masterpiece - a work of art -- read it to your kids but then save it for yourself!

This new Night Before Christmas has the look and feel of a Victorian Christmas. The lillustrations are Arthur Racham inspired and make this so much more than a children's Christmas book. Buy you kids one and them one for yourself and one for each of your friends! They will be love it...

The night before Christmas: a magical cut-paper edition

I collect The night before Christmas books, and this one is lovely. The black cutouts are dramatic. Wouldn't recommend it for young children; too easy to tear.
