Listen to the poem that is largely responsible for the contemporary American conception of Santa Claus, including his physical appearance, the night of his visit, his mode of transportation, the number and names of his reindeer, and his delivery of toys to children. First published in New York in 1823, this poem details the observation of a visit from St. Nick to a house as he lands on the roof, shoots down the chimney, and fills stockings with toys. This poem is read for the weekly poetry project at LibriVox by nine different narrators. For a fun one, listen to Brad Bush and his daughter Grace read the poem. It is available on MP3 download through LibriVox.
