From the jacket flap
Praise for Cajun Night Before Christmas:
"Forget Dancer, Prancer, Comet, and Vixen. . . . Good Clement, wherever he is, will not be gnashing his teeth."
-New York Times Book Review
"Rice is especially good with facial expressions, whether they are on a Texas jackrabbit, a longhorn steer, a dusty cowboy, or the green and long-nosed alligator named Gaston."
-Library Journal
In the tradition of The Night Before Christmas, author Kimbra Cutlip describes Christmas Eve from a fireman's point of view. Several unlucky firemen and police officers are spending a quiet Christmas Eve away from their families when "Jingle Bells" suddenly blares through the window. A Christmas-decked rig, snow-spurting water hose, and sooty old fireman are at the forefront of the Christmas Eve shenanigans.
Kimbra Cutlip, a certified emergency medical technician and firefighter, grew up with two firefighter uncles. Also the author of Sailor's Night Before Christmas, Cutlip lives near the Chesapeake Bay with her husband and two daughters.
James Rice (1934-2004), in his long, distinguished career as an author and illustrator, produced more than sixty children's books, among them several additions to The Night Before Christmas Series. Cajun Night Before Christmas�1/2, Rice's first book, has been nationally recognized as a classic in its genre. Rice taught art and music at both high school and college levels and loved teaching children the joys of writing and illustrating. With more than 2.5 million copies of his books in print, Rice ranks among the nation's best-selling creators of children's books, having received awards from Printer Industries of America and the Children's Book Council.
