Clement C. Moore, Eric Puybaret
Clement C. Moore (1779-1863) was a New York professor of divinity and literature best remembered today for his poem A Visit From St Nicholas, which became known as Twas the Night Before Christmas.
Eric Puybaret has already published more than 20 books in his native France, and is best known in the UK for his illustrations in Puff, the Magic Dragon (978-0-230-70381-0). His dreamy, peaceful artwork conveys all the charm and wonder of this much-loved poem.
