The Night Before Christmas poem, by Clement Clarke Moore, first appeared in 1823 and has since become an all-time Christmas favourite. Our modern image of Santa Claus as a bearded, plump, jolly figure can be traced back to Moore s famous description of St. Nick: He had a broad face, and a little round belly, That shook when he laughed, like a bowl full of jelly. Internationally acclaimed artist Gennady Spirin who was born on Christmas Day conveys the magic and rapture of St. Nick s visit, in this beautifully illustrated reproduction of Moore s famous Christmas poem. Gennady Spirin has received five gold medals from the Society of Illustrators and first prize at both the Bologna and Barcelona International Bookfairs for his work. His previous works include Yakov and the Seven Thieves (by Madonna). He lives in Princeton, USA.
