One of the most familiar popular poems and stories for children is Clement C. Moore's 1823 work A Visit From St Nicholas, which begins: 'Twas the night before Christmas When all through the house Not a creature was stirring, Not even a mouse. . . . and it is so familiar that phrases from it -- like "visions of sugar plums danced in their heads" have become part of our shared memories of warm holidays of the past. Kim Fernandes has illustrated Moore's poem with amazingly evocative sculptural work in FIMO modelling clay, depicting all the events of the poem -- from Santa calling to Dasher, Dancer, Prancer and Vixen, to his belly that shakes like a bowlful of jelly. . . to his departure, wishing "all a good night" -- vividly, warmly and merrily. It is a marvelously attractive and affordable permanent Christmas gift for new generations of children. The board construction will last (appealing to parents), and the color is bright and full of details kids will love. Bigger than a standard board book, it is attractively priced to be affordable for all budgets.

Hollywood Fashion explores the art and legacy of the cinematic costume designer, starting with the birth of the modern motion picture industry on a prime piece of California real estate known as Hollywood. Readers will discover how film clothing evolved from actors selecting items from their home wardrobes to outfits customized for their roles -- everything from suits of armor to ball gowns to office attire to lingerie, all created by a studio designer and a dedicated staff of costumers. They will also encounter the actresses from each decade who displayed a distinct fashion sense, on and off the screen -- women who made the costumer's job less demanding by embodying the character and evoking the time, place and circumstances the designer wished to portray. "Feature spreads" throughout the chronological chapters include: Style makers: offering biographies of the legendary designers and showcasing their most outstanding creations Style trends: exploring the social movements and cultural phenomena that affected movie costumes and further influenced how America -- and the world -- dressed Album of trendsetters: highlighting red carpet fashions and introducing the fans' favorite Blondes, Brunettes and Redheads Men of the decade: showing how male actors used fashion -- contemporary, historical or futuristic -- to create a character or enhance ambience. Hollywood Fashion will leave readers with a wider understanding of film costuming and an increased appreciation for the men and women who clothed the stars -- and made the spellbinding world of the American cinema memorable.
