Overview / 简介: |
First the reindeer rebelled--now it's the elves' turn! This fun follow-up to The Great Reindeer Rebellion is as over-the-top entertaining as its forerunner.
'Tis the month before Christmas, and things aren't great. The elves are complaining, “We're all running late!” The candy-cane twister needs major repairs; there's not enough cotton to stuff the toy bears. The North Pole's in trouble: Santa MUST find out why.
Told in fun rhyme and featuring embossed, spot-glossed pages, this holiday-bright book takes kids on an undercover mission with Santa himself--and gives them an inside peek at what REALLY goes on in the elves' workshop. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |

PreS-Gr 3-A versified look at trouble at the North Pole as pre-Christmas stress causes everyone to lose sight of the joys and fun of the season. Santa discovers that the elves are working so hard that they aren't having fun; the solution is to stretch the hours in the days and tell jokes while working. Shiny digital cartoon illustrations are full of action and primitive detail but, like the text, are working too hard to be either humorous or appealing. The message is heavy-handed and the story lacks the joy it intends to convey. |
