DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Around the world Santa Claus has many names. But in a deep, swampy bayou of Louisiana, he's known as Papa Noël. In such a hot and humid place, there can be no sleds or reindeer, so Papa Noël rides the river in a boat that's pulled by eight alligators, with a snowy white one named Nicollette in the lead. On this particular Christmas Eve, it's so foggy on the river that even Nicollette's magical glowing-green eyes may not be enough to guide Papa Noël. The alligators are tired, grumpy and bruised from banging into cypress trees, and Papa is desperate to get all the gifts to the little children. Well, "quicker than a snake shimmies down the river," the clever Cajun people come up with a solution that saves the day. A colorfully inventive Christmas tale, Papa Noël is a lesson in fast thinking, as well as a witty introduction to a part of America that's rich in folklore and legend.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This abbreviated board book edition is perfect introduction to the classic tale! Take the classic story of jolly old St. Nicholas, place it in a Louisiana bayou setting, dress Santa Claus in muskrat "from his head to his foot," pile his skiff high with toys, and hitch it to eight friendly alligators. The result is this modern classic. Fifty years after its first appearance, Cajun Night Before Christmas(R) has sold more than one million copies and has served as the model for Pelican's ongoing, best-selling Night Before Christmas Series. The Cajun Night Before Christmas(R) has been a part of Louisiana's holiday traditions since it was first published in 1973. A delight to both young and old with its rustic full-color illustrations and lively story, it has become a timeless addition to holiday celebrations far beyond south Louisiana, reaching all corners of the country with its charming presentation of Christmas on the bayou and the break-out star of Gaston(R) the Green-Nosed Alligator. Conceived by J. B. Kling, Jr., Cajun Night Before Christmas(R) originally appeared as a Christmas message from Bergeron Plymouth Company of New Orleans. Under the pseudonymous byline "Trosclair," the story won a Clio Award in 1967 from the Academy of Television and Radio Advertising. Brought to life by the talented James Rice, the humorous illustrations of a colorful bayou Christmas have been nationally recognized as a classic in its genre.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →After six children's books by legendary writer and illustrator Jim Rice, Gaston finally comes to life. This plush, cuddly, and cute stuffed animal is as close as any loyal reader of the Gaston series would like to get to a real live green-nosed alligator. Gaston was actually born over twenty years ago, as one of the alligators that helps Santa save Christmas in the landmark Pelican title, Cajun Night Before Christmas. Realizing the potential for this precocious character, Rice brought Gaston back for his very own series of books, first the debut Gaston the Green-Nosed Alligator, and in his following adventures Gaston Goes to Texas, Gaston Goes to the Kentucky Derby, Gaston Goes to Mardi Gras, and even Gaston Drills an Offshore Oil Well, and Gaston Lays an Offshore Pipeline.Considering that Gaston will probably always be remembered for his role in helping Santa save Christmas, Gaston comes complete with Santa cap and a bushy white beard, ready to help make your Christmas merry and bright.
