Around the world Santa Claus has many names. But in a deep, swampy bayou of Louisiana, he's known as Papa Noël. In such a hot and humid place, there can be no sleds or reindeer, so Papa Noël rides the river in a boat that's pulled by eight alligators, with a snowy white one named Nicollette in the lead. On this particular Christmas Eve, it's so foggy on the river that even Nicollette's magical glowing-green eyes may not be enough to guide Papa Noël. The alligators are tired, grumpy and bruised from banging into cypress trees, and Papa is desperate to get all the gifts to the little children. Well, "quicker than a snake shimmies down the river," the clever Cajun people come up with a solution that saves the day. A colorfully inventive Christmas tale, Papa Noël is a lesson in fast thinking, as well as a witty introduction to a part of America that's rich in folklore and legend.

The “charming” story behind one of the best-loved poems in the English language was written as a gift by a father to his family (Cleveland Daily Banner Book Review). In 1822, when Wall Street was still adjacent to rolling farmland, a devoted and deeply spiritual man named Clement Clarke Moore first shared his poem, “A Visit from St. Nicholas,” with his family. Moore’s gift not only delighted his loved ones; it went on to enchant millions of people everywhere, and still does to this day. With this book about the life and times of the Moore family in nineteenth-century New York and how the famous poem came into being, readers can make this timeless gift of yuletide their own beloved tradition. Beautifully designed with twenty drawings, The Story of “’Twas the Night Before Christmas” also features a facsimile of the poem in Moore’s own handwriting.
