'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In the hope that St. Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
And mamma in her kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap;......

While these stories were pretty simple, and unheard of by me other than the first one, The Night Before Christmas, they were enjoyable Christmas read-aloud stories for my daughter, which brought back ideas of a simpler time, when one gift could be plenty, when a family meal was cherished, when manners were a requirement, and when charity was desired, and when love and peace were the true meaning of Christmas.

Very old and very dated collection of short stories that don't hold up today. The only one worth the time is the classic The Night Before Christmas.

Frivilous

I did not enjoy the other stories. I guess I had hoped for something more meaningful. They were all about kids getting toys.

These classic Christmas tales are intended for children but adults will enjoy them, too. Some are cautionary tales that contain a moral lesson. Others are just pleasant and interesting stories about the joy of Christmas. Presents, sledding, food, friends, and family figure prominently. All the tales are entertaining, evoking the the spirit of Christmas.

Hot or miss

There ate a few really good stories here. Some are sweet or funny but there are some that ate just strange or a tad insulting.

It seems kind of funny reading a Christmas book in the middle of July but...I've been reading a bunch of books on my kindle that I have never read before, and this was one of them. Better sooner than later I guess. This is a classic I'm guessing, and despite that, I'm going to give this book 2 stars because I thought it was okay. My rating was not affected by the Summer month.

Some of these stories are really cute but many are only about a page long without a real plot. However, all of them are about doing nice things for other people at Christmas and that there is more to Christmas than getting presents.

If you are reading this one story a night then it will be fine but if you try to read several in succession small children will lose interest quickly.

Book of Christmas tales from 1903 with The Night Before Christmas as the most well-known. These are very short Christmas tales with a moral and I enjoyed the stories - they gave an insight into a bygone age. I don't think the modern child would understand all the references such as a muff or the "ragged schools", but still may like the stories.

Will be reading this book all through the holidays...

My son's love to read and love to be read to. I wanted this book because I wanted to read my grandson on of my favorite Christmas stories, but I will be reading to myself, reading to my children and grandchild, and maybe even the youth group at church.

Since it was published in 1903, the stories were pretty cheesy, and pretty much the same. No wonder "The night before Christmas" was such a big hit. It was way better than any other children's stories up to that point.

Gag-worthy short stories intended for children. Any child I know would slap me silly if I tried to read them such sugary sweet morality tales with one-dimensional characters.

There were some cute little stories in here. Some of them are a little old fashioned, but some have really good messages.

Great book for kids
I liked it. Very short stories. They should be longer and it should have way more.
