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.
