Why is there an elf upon the shelf? What is he doing there all by himself? Where did all the other elves go? You MUST read this book if you really want to know! Annie Lang's fun little holiday story draws young readers into a world where Elves work and play to make ready for the happiest season of the year. The story takes place at the Elves' cottage and readers quickly become engaged in the brightly colored and detailed imagery as the story unfolds. You'll find this book to be a wonderful publication for "read together" activities as it encourages discussion with each turn of the page. This is Annie Lang's second published children's book title and the first time her fun loving Elf characters have been introduced to young readers!
