'Twas the night before Christmas up in the Northwest, And the folks in Seattle were feeling their best.
Some last-minute shoppers were paying their fare To jump on the monorail to Pioneer Square.

We must hang our stockings, and Nick's cookies must bake; Please, let's get going or he'll have none to take."

4.0 out of 5 stars Night before, May 6, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Night Before Christmas In Seattle, The (Hardcover)
A cute book (literally as it is about 3 1/2 inches by 5 inches), great for a stocking stuffer! The author throws various Seattle bits into the tale--the Needle, Pacific Science Center, Boeing and even the Sonics, Seahawks and Mariners. Know someone moving to Seattle? Here's your gift for them! Are you from Seattle? Give this to your friends and relatives! This would also be a nice souvenier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brought back memories of childhood, December 3, 2004
This review is from: Night Before Christmas In Seattle, The (Hardcover)
Recently, while looking through my childhood pictures, I found a picture of our family trip to the Space Needle in December of 1974. There I am sitting next to the big windows with a huge red ribbon in my hair and a red, white and blue dessert topped with chocolate, which looks most delicious and magical.

It was a day I never forgot because the restaurant rotates and I'd never seen anything like that in my life. Since then we have made many trips back to the Space Needle and I took my nieces up to the restaurant for a special treat when we visited a few years ago.

I had to laugh while reading this tiny book because it seems I remember something about a Santa ornament or Christmas ornament being stuck out side the window and we kept seeing it as we spun slowly around in the restaurant. In this story, Santa gets stuck on the top of the Space Needle.

"The last thing he remembered,
he'd flown by a Seagull
And now here he was,
Stuck atop the Space Needle!"

There are references to shopping in Pioneer Square, working at Boeing, watching the Christmas Parade of the Ships and visits to Pike Place Market. The restaurant at the top of the Space Needle spins out of control and a cry for help is sent out from Lake Washington to the Puget Sound. Can Boeing help or will it take the Seahawks and the Mariners to get Santa down off the Space Needle?

An enjoyable treat that will be loved by anyone who loves Seattle, Washington.
