From the publisher
A humorous retelling of the classic poem Twas the Night Before Christmas–with a medieval twist! ‘Twas December 24th, and three brave knights were just settling in for the night when out on the drawbridge, there arose such a clatter! The knights try everything to get rid of this unknown invader (Santa Claus!), a red and white knight with a fleet of dragons . . . But nothing would stoptheir white-whiskered foe.No matter their efforts, he just would not go! This parody of Clement Clarke Moore’s well-known poem ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas is kid-friendly, clever, and just plain silly–sure to become a holiday classic of a different kind.
