"This rollicking, rhyming rendition of ‘The Night Before Christmas’ is a gloriously giggle-some festive treat."
Hot on the blasting bum of the popular Dragon with the Blazing Bottom series, this zany take on Clement C. Moore's 'The Night Before Christmas' classic is rip-roaringly good fun to read aloud. While its infectious energy is unlikely to settle little ones down for the night, it will certainly super-charge them with seasonal excitement!
While all the grownups are asleep on Christmas Eve, one little girl spies something that doesn’t seem right — “how come that Santa looks more like a knight?” she wonders. Turns out, Santa has been detained in Spain and Sir Wayne and Dragon have stepped in to save Christmas.
Cue a whole lot of onomatopoeic chaos, and a rather brilliant couplet that might just become a Christmas catchphrase for kids who are treated to this read-aloud triumph: “There’s nothing in life even half as much fun/As a race round the world on a rocketing bum!”
