Santa visits the big city—and winds up playing himself in the Macy’s parade—in this merry take on the classic Christmas poem…
Santa’s pre-Christmas jitters start just before Thanksgiving, and Mrs. Claus knows just what he needs to boost his holiday spirit—a trip to fabulous NYC for a little R&R (and a little shopping for her). They’re checking out chic stores when what should happen but the Macy’s parade official spots this Santa on the street and convinces him to fill in and “play” Santa in the parade.
Santa can’t help but laugh at the thought of how surprised everyone would be if they knew. The cheering of the children will boost Santa’s confidence for another year—and later that night, Mr. C borrows the parade sleigh to take a flight over all the boroughs of the city…

      In a sleek red gift book the shape and size of a slender clutch purse, the team behind The Night Before Christmas in Paris imagines an elegant Santa and Mrs. Claus enjoying a pre-holiday vacation in Manhattan. The highbrow verse blends humor with whimsy as the couple tours landmarks, Santa drops in on the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and the city renews his confidence: “There are lots of new buildings/ where boys and girls live./ In Manhattan’s great brownstones/ I’ve presents to give./ The Brooklyn Bridge! Easy!/ It’s lit night and day./ I’ll cross the East River/ toward Brighton Beach way.” Dickert’s modish line drawings of NYC sights would be at home on the pages of The New Yorker. Simultaneously available: The Night Before Christmas in Texas. Ages Up to age 10.
