Otis the elf is not selfish or greedy, you see. He just wants to keep the toys he makes and not have them placed under a tree. All year he works so hard for the little boys and girls to have gifts; surely Santa won't notice if he kept them for himself. This is a fun Christmas tale about a mischievous little elf who makes toys for all the good girls and boys. But this naughty elf wants to keep all the toys for himself! Add this rhyming holiday book to your Christmas collection and make it part of your new tradition.

This is such an adorable story for kids that will teach them an important lesson about the gift (and fun!) of giving during the holiday season. As told from a young elf's point of view, children will learn that giving to others does not mean that you will not be given back to in return. It's about sharing the fun and kindness with others. Very cute and brightly-colored illustrations that children will love. Highly recommended!
