LITTLE ELFIE ONE by Pamela Jane is a delightful tale that glows with the happiness of Christmas. It’s the North Pole and everyone is getting ready for the big night. Gingerbread men run, polar bears swim, snowmen shiver, and reindeer fly as Pamela Jane weaves a holiday story full of Christmas magic.

Each illustration breathes from the pages. Rich watercolors expertly blended bring each of the characters to life. The color pallet is beautifully deep and never screams out, overshadowing the text. They come together in a perfect partnership.

If you love the singsong cadence of the timeless classic, Over in the Meadow, you will love Little Elfie One. Told in the same musical manner, Little Elfie One has easy to read font and will be a pleasure to read to your children. My own son noticed the rhythm of Little Elfie One right away. He’s also a fan of Over in the Meadow. The vocabulary is not too challenging for an early reader, and parents will enjoy the musicality of the words. Toss in a healthy dose of Christmas cheer and Little Elfie One is a beautiful holiday favorite.
