‘Twas the night before Christmas,

when all through the stable

every creature was stirring.

This ain't a fable!

No stockings were hung,

no chimney in sight,

but one thing’s for sure

The Lord came that night!

Children will love this rollicking retelling of the Christmas story, based on the classic festive poem. Join the chaos and wonder of the very first ‘night before Christmas’ when everything was far from silent and still!

Selected commendations:

“Super accessible and fun to read - with a great gospel emphasis. Bravo!”

Jonathan Thomas, author & minister of Cornerstone Church, Abergavenny

"Had the pleasure of reading The Night Before Christmas by my good northern chum Oliver Lancaster. I love Ollie’s writing - full of conversational charm, wit and wordplay. Reading this gem feels like you’re journeying the very first Christmas, while sipping mulled wine in your slippers. Wholeheartedly recommend."

Dai Woolridge, spoken word poet, storyteller and author
