It's December 23, and Christmas is just around the corner. But one family is having trouble getting its act together. Once again, Natasha Wing follows the rhythms and meter of Clement Moore's classic Christmas poem, yet gives it her own entirely original twist.

Es 23 de diciembre: no falta nada para la Navidad. Pero a una familia le está costando mucho terminar de alistar todo. Una vez más, Natasha Wing usa el ritmo y la métrica del clásico poema navideño de Clement Moore, pero dándole su propio giro completamente original a la historia.
