It's Christmas Eve, and the entire house is sleeping-all except one little boy, woken by the jingle of bells and the clatter of reindeer hooves on the roof. As he tiptoes downstairs, who will he find?
Clement C. Moore was born in New York City in 1779. A professor and writer, he is best known for this poem, which he wrote for his children in 1822. Originally entitled A Visit from St. Nicholas, the poem soon became better known by its famous first line: ’Twas the Night Before Christmas.
