Summary: Doesn't do the poem justice.
Comment: Anita Lobel is a gifted illustrator and we have loved every other one of her books. So when we saw she had turned her talents toward an illustration of Clement Moore's classic poem, we figured it had to be terrific, right? Wrong. These dull, dark, dreary illustrations do nothing to bring alive the magic of Moore's work. We've seen other versions by completely unknown artists which were far more enchanting. The pictures are smallish and blurry, and three pages are merely different angles of essentially the same scene (Santa at the hearth). What a disppointment! To see what Ms. Lobel is capable of, we suggest you check out one of her other books (ON MARKET STREET is a good one to try). And if it's a nice version of Moore's poem that you need, there are are plenty of others to choose from right here on Amazon. ....
