Cajun Night Before Christmas,
By Elizabeth R. Stiles (U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cajun Night Before Christmas (The Night Before Christmas Series) (Hardcover)
I have had this book for almost twenty years, and every Christmas my friends beg me to read it to them with my Cajun accent. This is such a FUN book for children and adults, and it is written in the Cajun dialect so that it is easy to have a Cajun accent. I have never met anyone who didn't fall in love with this book! Buy it! You won't be sorry, and it will become a family heirloom for many generations to come.

A New Way To View Santa Claus....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cajun Night Before Christmas (The Night Before Christmas Series) (Hardcover)
Looking for a new way to view Santa Claus? Well, here is the book for you. This book takes a folklore view of Santa in Louisiana. The illustrations are warm, friendly and give the reader a glimpse on how Christmas is celebrated on the bayou. :)

Cajun Night= Guaranteed Pleaser of All Ages,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cajun Night Before Christmas (Hardcover)
This book I used in a Christmas theme when I student taught 3rd grade. They absolutley loved it. Not only was it funny but very very well written and entertaining. In fact, when I came back to visit them a week after I left, they made me read it again. Good spinoff of The Night Before Christmas.
