The Forgotten Helper: A Christmas Story

About this book

Aben is Santas best toy maker. He is also Santas grouchiest most ill-behaved elf. On Christmas Eve while Santa and the other elves are delivering gifts Abens task is to watch the reindeer. But at the very last house Aben sneaks down the chimney to take a look around. When he comes back up to the roof Santa the elves and the sleigh are gone! Aben must wait a whole year until Santa returns. As the stranded Aben investigates the house he finds a young girl who is as grouchy and mischievous as he is. No wonder Santa almost didnt stop to bring Ivy gifts this year. And whos to say he will next year if this incorrigible girl doesnt learn to behave? So begins Abens adventure: he must learn about Ivy and devise a plan to ensure that Santa will come back for him next Christmas Eve. From the Hardcover edition.
