Native American Night Before Christmas

Review
“Jesse Hummingbird’s inspired illustrations transform Gary Robinson’s playful adaptation into a fresh and modern work of art. A delight for people of all ages and cultures, especially those interested in Native American customs and art.” ― Goodminds
“For a child, the poem presents an old story in a new light, complete with a Native Santa clad in buckskins, beadwork and carrying a medicine bundle. If that's not tradition, I don't know what is. As for the adults sharing the story, this is a poem that will at the very least, make you smile.” ― The Circle News
An innovative retelling of the classic Christmas tale, this full-color book takes a whimsical look at what Christmas Eve might be like for a Native American family when Old Red Shirt (the Native American Santa Claus) comes a-calling with his team of flying white buffalo to deliver fry bread, commodities and other goodies. Renowned Cherokee artist Jesse Hummingbird’s inspired illustrations transform the author’s playful adaptation into a fresh and modern work of art. A delight for people of all ages and cultures, especially those interested in Native customs and art.

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the tipi, not a creature was stirring, nothing crawly, nothing creepy.
