The week before Christmas is full of fun and excitement, and it is hard for kids to be good, but it is also the time for an elf to visit and watch the goings on. He can't sit still for long, so you have to find him every day as the home is prepared for Christmas
Our Family's Christmas Elf is rhythmic and lyrical and fun to read aloud with your children. I can really appreciate an author who can write a rhythmic story and not feel obligated to make it a rhyming story. Kids enjoy searching each page for the elf and, of course, they enjoy watching the Christmas traditions unfold the week before Christmas.

I was especially impressed that the story reminds us that Christmas Eve is a holy night, and not just about the holiday festivities.

Armchair Interviews says: A fun Christmas read-aloud.
