Clement Clarke Moore wrote "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (commonly known as "The Night Before Christmas") for his children as a Christmas gift, in 1822. It was initially published anonymously and later attributed to him. The poem's popularity and lasting appeal have made it a beloved Christmas tradition.
