Book Description
"Twas the Night Before Krampusnacht" is an imaginative children's book that reinterprets the classic holiday poem, "A Visit from St. Nicholas" by Clement Clarke Moore, with a whimsical twist. In this story, the focus shifts from the jolly St. Nicholas to the mythical figure of Krampus, often portrayed in European folklore as a counterpart to Saint Nicholas. The book begins on the eve of Krampusnacht, a night traditionally celebrated in parts of Europe on December 5th, when Krampus is said to visit. The story follows the same rhythmic and rhyming structure as Moore's original poem, creating a familiar yet exciting new tale. Illustrations in the book blend eerie and enchanting elements, depicting Krampus in a more whimsical, less fearsome manner. Scenes of snowy landscapes, moonlit skies, and the cozy interiors of a family home add to the festive yet mysterious atmosphere. Overall, "Twas the Night Before Krampusnacht" is a delightful spin on a classic, introducing young readers to a different cultural legend while maintaining the magic and moral lessons of the holiday season.
