Children ages 2-5 can join the elves as they help Santa get ready for Christmas in this clever, interactive board book. Features fun die-cut pages and lift-the-flaps!

It's Christmastime--the busiest time of year for Santa Claus and his elves! Santa's workshop is buzzing as the cheerful elves make toys, sort through the piles of the letters that children around the world have sent to Santa, and take care of the reindeer. As the night wears on and the elves get tired, they head off to bed one by one until they're all sound asleep. This fun, interactive Christmas board book features sturdy flaps and die-cut pages for a clever transformation with each turn of the page!
Selina Wood has been an editor and writer of children’s books for over 20 years. She has written about everything from pets to time travel. Selina enjoys singing and gardening and works with a friendly green llama on her desk.

From an early age, Gareth Williams has loved to draw, and that passion continues to this day. It's something he still can't believe he gets to do for a living. He's worked on a wide range of projects, including greeting cards, editorial illustration, and children's books. When he's not working, Gareth enjoys soccer, gaming, and movies.
Baby-Toddler–Five elves of various skin tones in brightly colored stocking caps help Santa Claus prepare for Christmas by checking the mail, making toys, feeding the reindeer, cleaning the reindeers’ bells, and wrapping all the presents. One by one, they complete their tasks and, with a lift of a flap and a turn of the page, go to bed: “Good night, sleepy elf!” VERDICT A sweet countdown to the holiday, this could be an additional purchase for large board book collections. --School Library Journal
