- Book Synopsis
-
Ideal for readers who:
- Love festive picture books filled with counting, chaos and Christmas cheer.
- Are charmed by stories where one small wish grows into delightful mayhem.

Count the busy elves in this adorable Christmas story about friendship that will teach children that sometimes less is more.
At Christmas time an elf arrived . . . but very soon I knew . . . one little elf was not enough and so I needed . . . two! When an elf comes to stay, you're sure to have lots of fun. But wouldn't 2 . . . 3 . . . 4 . . . or even 10 elves be better still? Or would their over-enthusiastic present wrapping and noisy festive tunes create just a bit too much Christmas chaos?! Perhaps just one special elf friend is perfect . . .
From the creators of How Many Dinosaurs is Too Many? and Charlie Chooses - Lou Peacock (A Whale of a Time, Oliver Elephant and The Bear, the Book and the Blanket) and Nicola Slater (The Leaf Thief, the Hello series and the Meekoo series) - comes this rhyming romp that shows that true happiness is often found in what you already have.
