If You Love a Christmas Tale: The Night Before Christmas and the Nutcracker

Artist Susanna Lockheart‚€s large, beautiful color illustrations celebrate the Christmas season by magically changing in their details each time young readers lift and turn a page. The holiday magic behind each Christmas picture is the result of an inventive paper engineering technique that is part of this unusual book‚€s construction. These festive ‚€œmoving‚€ illustrations dramatize and highlight two favorite Christmas tales, The Nutcracker and The Night Before Christmas. Here is a beautiful book that makes a wonderful holiday gift--a volume that boys and girls will return to and cherish for many Christmases to come.
