Cajun Night Before Christmas® (The Night Before Christmas Series)

This is a great book, it brings back fond childhood memories! This miniature version has a little ribbon loop for hanging on the Christmas tree and makes a great gift for other Cajuns or the people who love them!

As a person with strong ties to Louisiana and Cajun culture, the dialect & photos presented are so accurate & fun. A joy to read & explain to others not familiar with a remarkable culture.

This book has been a Christmas favorite of my family's for many years. You won't find anything like it out there. It's unique, creative, cultural, and if you pronounce it in the Cajun accent the way it is written, it is one of the most entertaining children's books around. But, it's fun for adults, too. We have one copy, but I have two older daughters. I bought this as a second copy, so both of my almost grown daughters will have one for their families one day.

I was unaware that a "miniature" book was actually more Barbie size. It's practically a joke. I paid around $9 for this book and I feel it was a rip-off due to the ridiculous small size. I learned a lesson there. Besides the tiny side of the book (and yes, size matters) the actual writing and story line is cute. It was enjoyable listening to my SC husband read this book to our son Christmas Eve. After giggling at my hubs annunciation I (the LA local) was challenged to read it again. Fun times, BUT an itty bitty, tinny tiny book.

Have ALWAYS loved this book! It has become an annual read aloud for the kids at school! They get a kick out of the cajun accent...which is easy to create with the way the book is written. Would highly recommend! The best in the series.

The Cajun Night Before Christmas is great fun. I found it first about 30 years ago when I was teaching and doing a lesson about how the same story could be told so many different ways. Shared it with my kids at school and at home having fun reading it aloud with my version of a creole accent. French plus southern done by a Hoosier. We all loved it! Now it is a family Christmas tradition and my grandchildren look forward to it!!
