How Murray Saved Christmas

I discovered this picture book several years ago and it has become one of my favorite read-alouds.  Written by Mike Reiss, it follows the pattern of many books who have taken the Clement Moore poem, T'was the Night Before Christmas and modified it.  In this version, Murray, a diner owner, has been asked to substitute for Santa. It is hilarious and heartwarming.
