beautiful reinterpretation […] Lynch, Ireland’s fourth Laureate na nÓg for children’s literature has used a dark Victorian palette lit up like a Vermeer by the glow of snow and candle flame.

"'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse..."
P.J. Lynch brings his rich and atmospheric art to the well-loved Christmas verse. From the stockings hung by the chimney to the bundle of toys flung over St Nicholas's back, children will love to pore over the detailed images inside. A book to return to again and again.

«For Christmas Eve, Clement C Moore’s 1823 poem “’Twas The Night Before Christmas” is a must-read, and the great illustrator PJ Lynch has given us a version suffused with winter magic, all warmth and shivery loveliness, for ages 3 to 93.»
