"[A]n enjoyable romp. Fun Yuletide fare for the up-all-night crowd." — Kirkus Reviews“?’Twas the night before Christmas' in this variation on 'A Visit from St. Nicholas,' but the poem’s leading creature, Mouse, can’t seem to settle down. Luckily, the big guy has just the right gift for the wide-awake mouse. Hogan’s digital illustrations glow with toasty reds and oranges—coloring that suggests the holiday and Mouse’s energy alike. It’s hard not to sympathize with the over-excited Mouse’s night-before plight in this wind- down story from Pierczynski." — Publishers Weekly"A fun take on the Christmas classic ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas that will have readers laughing and guessing what mischief might happen next. Children will easily relate to how difficult it is to get to sleep and dream of sugar plums when they are too excited for the arrival of a special visitor." — School Library Journal
