Customer Reviews

Love the story. Pages missing.

This classic story is amazing. HOWEVER, THE COPY I RECEIEVED WAS MISSING PAGES.

Boardbook

I didn't realize I was ordering a boardroom but the whole poem is in it with color illustrations which are okay. The book is in decent condition after I cleaned it & polished it & neighborhood kid will like it. If u have a small child they'd enjoyed having this read to them & then looking at it themselves. As far the poem it is a classic that kids&adults have loved for years & years.

Classic prose, fresh artwork

I wanted the classic W. Clement Moore prose with 19th Century-style illustrations for my nephew, and got what I wanted. "Mamma," "Pa," Santa and the others are in classic visual style as drawn by contemporary artist John Steven Gurney in this 1989 paperback Scholastic version, but the words have not been altered. A winner all around! From the book: "He had a broad face and a round little belly, That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of jelly. He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself . . ."

Classic!

Great copy of a classic story!
