*Signed Bookplate*

Packed with humor and heart, author Heather Pierczynski and illustrator Skylar Hogan present a laugh-out-loud, refreshing, and irresistibly fun spin on a timeless holiday tale, exploring why exactly only the mouse is singled out in the famous first lines of The Night Before Christmas. 

'Twas the night before Christmas,

when all through the house,

not a creature was stirring, not even a—

MOUSE!

He had never heard of a mouse not stirring.

It was the most glorious night of the year!

So he stirred. Squeaked! Eeked!

Anything but sleep.

Madison S. ★★★★★

The signed bookplate was a lovely touch, and the story itself is such a clever twist on the classic poem that my whole family was giggling by the third page. It's the kind of holiday book that'll become a yearly re-read.

Carter ★★★★★

The humor hits perfectly from the first page — my kids were giggling at the twist on the classic story, and I was too. The signed bookplate came neatly tucked inside, which feels special for a gift.

Chloe ★★★★★

The signed bookplate is a lovely touch, and the humor in this retelling had me genuinely chuckling out loud while flipping through. It's the perfect pick-me-up for a cozy evening, and the illustrations are just as charming as the story.
