美国诗人Clement Clarke Moore 在1822年写下的诗: Twas The Night Before Christmas Poem流传了近两个世纪,至今仍常在平安夜被人们朗诵着......耶诞夜期待圣诞老公公造访的心情,驯鹿雪橇飞过天际的声音,逐渐接近的脚步,圣诞老人从烟囱爬下来了..... .他的眼睛闪闪发亮,酒窝荡漾着喜气,脸颊像玫瑰,鼻子像樱桃,胡须白得像雪.....送来了礼物,他一句话也没说,只做该做的事,将礼物装满所有的袜子,转身就走,上了雪橇飞上天空,圣诞老人大声喊着:"Happy Christmas to all and to all a good night!"......经典的圣诞诗篇,多年来由不同的绘者为它画上插画出版,不断的让大家歌颂......这次团的版本是著名画家查理斯·斯通（Charles Santore）的作品，非常唯美。

本书曾荣登纽约时报排行榜首位。
