Must Read

When I first moved to Louisiana I was 29 years old. I went to see christmas lights in the park in NOLA and that is the first time I ever heard the cajun night before Christmas. I loved it. Have since read it to my family every year.
Absolutely my favorite Christmas story!!!

I was raised on this story. It is nice to be able to pass this story to the next generation. Than you.
Fantastic!

I'm just some White American who loves learning about and meeting people, so when I saw that there was a Cajun Night Before Christmas, I knew I needed to get it. Comparing and sharing traditions is one of the most intimate ways of learning about others (in my humble opinion), and I was overjoyed at the opportunity to experience a story I knew through the care and humor of a culture different from mine. Highly recommended- if I had kids or even adults who would tolerate me reading to them out loud in my life, I would be absolutely obnoxious in an annual Cajun Christmas reading.
Cajun Night= Guaranteed Pleaser of All Ages

This book I used in a Christmas theme when I student taught 3rd grade. They absolutley loved it. Not only was it funny but very very well written and entertaining. In fact, when I came back to visit them a week after I left, they made me read it again. Good spinoff of The Night Before Christmas.
Cajun Night Before Christmas

I have had this book for almost twenty years, and every Christmas my friends beg me to read it to them with my Cajun accent. This is such a FUN book for children and adults, and it is written in the Cajun dialect so that it is easy to have a Cajun accent. I have never met anyone who didn't fall in love with this book! Buy it! You won't be sorry, and it will become a family heirloom for many generations to come.
A New Way To View Santa Claus....

Looking for a new way to view Santa Claus? Well, here is the book for you. This book takes a folklore view of Santa in Louisiana. The illustrations are warm, friendly and give the reader a glimpse on how Christmas is celebrated on the bayou. :)
Very entertaining and well received when read out loud!

My daughter received this book as a gift in 1977 when we lived in Louisiana and it has become a tradition to read it every Christmas (even though we left the South long ago). The characters are easy to relate to because we know the originals - and these are so clever. Just brush up on your accent before reading aloud.
