'Twas the night before Christmas and all around the house, not a creature was stirring, except for a moose….
Readers of all ages will laugh out loud at all the Canadian references in this hilarious version of the night before Christmas.
There are children in long johns snug in their beds while visions of poutine dance in their heads. Santa replaces his reindeer with a team of beavers - Gretzky, Trudeau, Shania, Loonie, Bob, Doug, Suzuki and Toonie.
A musical version of The Night Before a Canadian Christmas has been recorded by K.A.S.P. and is available on A Moose in a Maple Tree: A Canadian Christmas Compilation along with many other hits by top Canadian artists. Click here for more details.

favourite Christmas gift
We gave this book to our corporate clients, and to our nieces and nephews. Everyone loved it. I got messages on Christmas Eve from family and friends telling us how much fun they were having reading it aloud. Most successful gift shopping this year!
