The Night Before Christmas

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Barbara Reid. Reid's unusual illustrations of mice, rendered in Plasticine, renew Moore's classic poem with an impressive amount of depth and detail. Panoramic double-page spreads capture the energy and anticipation of Christmas Eve, with all the mice busily readying for Santa Claus's (Santa Maus's?) arrival; looking closer, visual jokes abound--who knew that mice read on the toilet?
