This is a fun concept and it’s put together well。 However， I think the meter is really off。

A fun and clever take on ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas starring Dorothy （me 😂）， Sophia， Rose， and Blanche。 And of course， its full of witty Golden Girls references。 I’ve read it several times already and will def be a new holiday tradition。 It’s perfect for a quick laugh！ A great gift book， too。

A fun little book based on the classic children's story。 I absolutely love the Golden Girls， so I thought it was pretty cool to have a " 'Twas the Night Before Christmas " Golden Girls version。 I find that the rhythm follows the original story well。 This version references many things from the t。v。 show， which makes it funny and cute。 A must-read for all Golden Girls fans！ A fun little book based on the classic children's story。 I absolutely love the Golden Girls， so I thought it was pretty cool to have a " 'Twas the Night Before Christmas " Golden Girls version。 I find that the rhythm follows the original story well。 This version references many things from the t。v。 show， which makes it funny and cute。 A must-read for all Golden Girls fans！ 。。。more

Wonderful tale of the women。 Well researched and moving。

A lovely， nostalgic read。 I truly pity the millennials who had to grow-up without the wit， wisdom and sarcastic humor of these 4 lovely ladies。。。。。absolutely the “golden” age of television。

This was a gift from my sweet boys who know how much their mama loves the Golden Girls and it was definitely my favorite gift this year。 The story was short and sweet， the illustrations were perfect and I was so happy the Rusty anchor got a shout out！

2。5 stars for the poem itself。 The cadence gets off in a couple of places。 Or maybe that should be meter。。。 or rhythm。。。 or flow。。。 I'm not an English major or a poet， so I don't know the right term， but I know enough to know it derails here and there。 Don't tell me about poetry， I know what I know; I'm an internet blowhard。But it's The Golden Girls， and there were references to several different episodes and running gags。 I believe I caught all of them， and I enjoyed all of them， so four stars 2。5 stars for the poem itself。 The cadence gets off in a couple of places。 Or maybe that should be meter。。。 or rhythm。。。 or flow。。。 I'm not an English major or a poet， so I don't know the right term， but I know enough to know it derails here and there。 Don't tell me about poetry， I know what I know; I'm an internet blowhard。But it's The Golden Girls， and there were references to several different episodes and running gags。 I believe I caught all of them， and I enjoyed all of them， so four stars it is。（The rest of this is a non-review， so make your escape now。）Is The Golden Girls my favorite show？ No。 Is it my favorite sitcom？ No， but it's damn close。 It never quite pushes The Andy Griffith Show out of the top spot， and it also has to contend with Still Standing （which I really wish they would put out on DVD or something） and The Cosby Show。 （Yeah， I know， fall from grace， blah， blah， blah， I don't care; I still love the show even if the star did some rather heinous deeds; sue me。 However， I will admit watching a couple of episodes are a little tough when I know that the guest star was someone he's supposed to have raped。 The Mrs。 Minifield episode， for example， which was one of my favorite ones from the last season。 That particular case hasn't been proven in a court of law， but the evidence is pretty damning。）But this isn't about The Cosby Show， it's about The Golden Girls。 I probably know that show better than I know any of the others I mentioned， and that's mostly because they've been playing it continually on various channels for the past 20 years， and I even remember some of it from its original run。 I usually put it on if I run across it， and I'm definitely a major fan。 I own all the DVD's。 I have crochet patterns for dolls of each of the girls， though I haven't made them yet。 Mama and I have the Golden Girls Trivial Pursuit game， and I'm pretty good at it。 Once when a friend and I were watching， I said "Oh， this is the episode where Sophia goes to Sicily。" The episode had just started， been on for only a couple of seconds， and Dorothy had just walked across the living room with Blanche behind her holding a note pad。 Friend stared at me with a mixture of awe and pity （she knew I had no life） and said "All she did was walk across a room。。。 You should do that at parties！" Dorothy's quip "the next time I'm lost in the woods with a stack of pancakes" still makes me laugh out loud every time I think about it， though I first heard it a couple of decades ago。 It got to me again when I watched that episode the other day （it's the first， and better， Christmas show）。 And do you know what all of this means？ Ah， blow it out your tubenburbles， you old raisin in sneakers。 And I would like for the record to show that I do not know all the words to "Send in the Clowns。。。" though I confess I can sing "Daybreak" without flubbing it， and that's just as bad， so I reckon I'm guilty as charged。 Oh well。This book would be appreciated by only superfans of the show; no others need apply。 。。。more

I ostensibly have a Christmas tradition of reading something short， random， and dumb。 Okay， I have never watched an episode of The Golden Girls， and its current status as a pop-culture phenomenon admittedly puzzles and annoys me。 I don't know the ratio of authenticity to irony in the fandom。 This was written by a husband-husband duo， but I won't automatically presume that is indicative of the demographic。 （I only point it out to draw attention to the fact that it took two authors to write this）。 I ostensibly have a Christmas tradition of reading something short， random， and dumb。 Okay， I have never watched an episode of The Golden Girls， and its current status as a pop-culture phenomenon admittedly puzzles and annoys me。 I don't know the ratio of authenticity to irony in the fandom。 This was written by a husband-husband duo， but I won't automatically presume that is indicative of the demographic。 （I only point it out to draw attention to the fact that it took two authors to write this）。 You can get everything from coloring books to Funko Pop figures based on this show。 And， as it turns out， novelty gag books that are so thin they probably wouldn't give the personal use paper shredder too much trouble， for $12。99！ （Each of the books， not the paper shredder）！ Yes， books。 Plural。 The humor section at my local Barnes & Noble is almost as replete with these old ladies as it is with cats in silly costumes。Did I have any business actually taking the time to pick this up and breeze through it？ No， but it was my right as an American， so I did it， and it was dumb。 。。。more

I can not put into words how fantastic this was。 I love my golden ladies and when this came in to the store for the holidays， it was simply the best holiday present ever！ Funny， entertaining and just great for fans of the show。

A cute little Golden Girls version of the Christmas classic。 A very quick， simple read。 Had I known just how short it was I wouldn't have spent so much on it。 At least the story was entertaining and the art very good。 A cute little Golden Girls version of the Christmas classic。 A very quick， simple read。 Had I known just how short it was I wouldn't have spent so much on it。 At least the story was entertaining and the art very good。 。。。more

This was a Christmas gift and took 2。5 minutes to read。 I feel like there should have been a mention of the lanai but at least the Rusty Anchor got a shout-out！

Very funny and true to the spirit of the series。 Good illustrations。I often complain with books like this that they get a little sloppy with the meter。 There is one blip in the rhythm here， and it is a perfect joke。 Good job。

I got The Golden Girls: ‘twas the Night Before Christmas as a gift from my husband for Christmas and it was so hilarious！ All lovers of The Golden Girls will get enjoyment out of this short story。 I was laughing my whole way through this wonderful book。

This short poem/book was exactly what I needed to make this Christmas amazing。 It was a gift from my best friend and it was perfect。 Quick。 Fun。 And I loved the illustrations。 I can’t wait to read this book to my goddaughters and/or kids。 Any fan of the Golden Girls should have this book。
