Cajun Night After Christmas/Cajun Night Before Christmas(r)

My dad has read The Cajun Night Before Christmas to us kids on Christmas Eve since I was born (I am 25 now), so when I saw the Night AFTER Christmas I knew it would be a perfect birthday gift for him. Needless to say he loves it, we love it, and it might just start a new night after Christmas tradition for our family!

OK I have never been to de South but someone had shared their Cajun Night before Christmas. It became a favorite. This was just a given that it would be enjoyed which it is.

I bought this book after reading Cajun Night Before Christmas, and I'm glad I did. I really enjoyed it, especially after visiting New Orleans a couple years ago. I look forward to reading this to my future grandchildren.

I had the oppertunity to meet Jenny in person a few years back and she gave my son and autographed copy of the Cajun Night After Christmas with a "gator" and my son was thrilled. Every year at Christmas he takes his copy of the book to school to show his teachers and they read it to the class! Now I have another son and he loves the tale as much as my oldest son. The illustrations and text go together like bread and butter! I still laugh and get toungue tied when reading this book to my children. This book is not just a seasonal book for our family, it is a year round treat to enjoy together. We each have our Cajun Gator voices ready at bed time! Thank you Mrs. Moss for your wonderful gift to our family, you, your sister, and the illustrator are wonderful artists and have done a wonderful job with this book.

After reading the Cajun Night Before Christmas to children for many years and anticipating the release of this book, I was very impressed with the work of the authors. As usual, James Rice did an excellent job of illustrating. I am always impressed by his drawings,especially with the expressions of the characters. It was a great follow up to the Cajun Night Before christmas. I have added it to my vast collection of the original Night Before Christmas books and its variations. After I master the dialect and get the words to flow, I will probably be reading this book to kids for years to come. Thanks, Jenny, Amy and James
