Remember this one?

I recently was in Wal-Mart and saw this book out of the corner of my eye….I just had to buy it… 

I don’t know about you, but I remember this book as a child, and reading it to my children when they were little…..I just love the graphics!  The kids now are so missing out on the wonderful artist’s of the 40’s and 50’s…..

This is how the book looks now:

See what I mean????  I guess I am just a bit on the nostalgic side today…..so enjoy some of  the pages with me.  :)

I wonder if the new version ends with “Happy Christmas” like Clement C. Moore meant it to be…..

 

When my children were little guys and my husband read to them before bed,  they would go over the back of these books and tell him who everyone was on the back cover…..this had to be done every time…..Such a nice memory.  :)
