Elfbert, Santa’s Reluctant Helper

Elfbert, Santa’s Reluctant Helper is a charming illustrated story told in rhyme about a devoted little elf who persuades Santa Claus to give children “qualities” for Christmas instead of toys with surprising and delightful results. The illustrations are rendered in an antique wood block style.

Families will look forward to bringing Elfbert out each Christmas as an entertaining and inspiring reminder of our most cherished human values. The story has been set to original music by Omaran, sung by Carol Setter, and narrated by the author and his wife, Rochelle – both professional actors.
