From 1989, this version was illustrated by Cheryl Harness. Overall darker color tones, with the text of the poem in boxes over the images.

This is the version that I found I also had in a board book. Originally published in 1995, with illustrations by Christian Birmingham. I have quite a few versions that I love, but I think this is my favorite. The illustrations are gorgeous - soft and slightly mysterious that perfectly suits the poem. The black & white illustrations on the text pages are lovely, and the font is perfect too.

Copyright 1989 by Running Press, this is the tiniest version in my collection! Just 2-3 inches tall, it includes the whole poem in a hardback with a dust jacket! The font and greenery on the text pages is very pretty.

mabell @LeahBergen Yes, she has some lovely paintings! I just realized a print I gave my mom of two sisters playing with dolls was one of hers! 3mo

This version took a unique approach to the pictures accompanying the text. The editors selected a vintage/antique illustration that they thought best fit each stanza, so many different styles (and Santas) are represented. It was published in 1998 by Blue Lantern Studios, and was compiled by Cooper Edens and Harold Darling.

A 1963 small hardback by Whitman, illustrated by Carol Munshi. The illustrations are primarily bright and kooky!
