Book Review: 'Elf in the House' by Ammi-Joan Paquette

✰✰✰ When a little girl discovers that there’s only crumbs left for Santa, she decides to investigate. Along the way, others join her until a special visitor arrives. Then it’s time to party because Christmas really is the best time of the year.

The Bottom Line: Both the story and the illustrations seemed very basic and left me looking for something more. The digitally created illustrations lacked detail and the color seemed a bit off; however, the spare style and large print might appeal to little ones ages 2 - 5.
