The Soldiers' Night Before Christmas by Christine Ford

Inspired by the famous Christmas poem, The Night Before Christmas, this picture book about Christmas in the Army is perfect for children of military families and anyone with loved ones serving overseas.

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the base
Only sentries were stirring -- they guarded the place.
The soldiers were sleeping and snoring away
As they dreamed of 'back home' on good Christmas Day.

One Christmas Eve at a military barracks in the Middle East, some homesick soldiers are paid a visit by Sergeant McClaus, the Santa of Soldiers. This lively and poignant tale is inspired by Clement C. Moore's classic yuletide poem.
Christine Ford and Trish Holland both live in Texas. They collaborated on the successful Golden Book The Soldiers' Night Before Christmas. Christine Ford is also the author of the middle-grade novel Scout and Trish Holland is the author of two Little Golden Books: Lasso the Moon and Come Back, Zack!
