About the Book
Little Elf is supposed to be doing some important chores on Christmas Eve--including emptying Santa's sleigh, which is full of snow. However,
Little Elf decides it would be more fun to play, instead. See how Little Elf
and his reindeer friend Rowdy save the day after one of the stoves in Mrs.
Claus's candy kitchen catches on fire!
Little Elf appeals to readers of all ages. Young readers (and pre-readers)
enjoy the magic of Christmas and the playfulness of the characters. Older
readers will appreciate the humor of the drawings and the lesson of the
story. The Adventures of Little Elf is in the same genre as Curious
George, where a well-meaning but spunky young character can save the
day through quick thinking and problem solving.
Parents and Grandparents will enjoy the book as an entertainer and as a
lap reader, for, as the story begins...

About the Author
Author Craig Jones used to tell his young sons Adam and Brady fun Little Elf bedtime stories during the holiday season so that they could go to sleep with smiles on their faces. Wife Pat enjoyed listening to the stories from behind the door! Illustrator Scott Sims makes the characters come to life with his playful portrayals of the North Pole crew. He lives in Maple Valley with his wife Wendy and has three daughters—Savannah, Taylor and Ripley. Both are teachers in Maple Valley, Washington—not all that far from the North Pole!
