What is The Night Before Christmas about?

On a quiet Christmas Eve, a family is nestled in their beds when the father is awakened by a clatter. Peering out, he witnesses the arrival of St. Nicholas in a sleigh pulled by eight reindeer. The jolly old elf fills the stockings with gifts before disappearing into the night, leaving behind a magical memory of Christmas wonder.
