3321 Mon. Night 13th AUTHOR

Joe Gribnau is a proud fifth generation Montanan and currently works as an elementary school teacher. He received the inspiration for this book after asking his fifth grade class to write a new version of Night Before Christmas. I like the way this author took the version of his students serious and involved them in this book. Gribnau graduated from the University of Montana with a B.A. in elementary education and lives in Walla Walla, Washington, with his wife and two children.
Here is the classic Night Before Christmas tale with a new Rocky Mountain twist. With unforgettable names like Old Jed and Big Jim, this is the story of Old Saint Nick’s wild Western ride as he journeys across the night sky with a hoot and a holler and his eight flying cattle.
Why do you think Santa Claus' journey on Christmas was delayed? And making it necessary for this cowboy to show his captor the spirit of the season and save Christmas once again. This is a book for the elementary level.
