Project Gutenberg just released The Night Before Christmas and Other Popular Stories For Children which includes nice stories (mostly of a Christmas theme) and some cute clip art. It even includes the much less well known The Night After Christmas, which gave me a chuckle. Come the holiday season, expect to see some of these images recycled as graphics for this blog. Perhaps I’ll even think of doing an audio version of this. While the dulcet tones of my voice aren’t the most pleasing, I bet you that I could render a version of it that would be enjoyable for kids who are, let’s face it, not the most discerning of critics.

Time go gather jingle-bell sound effects.
