Cute family story

My son enjoyed listening to the story while we decorated gingerbread houses. It does have adult humor and kid humor.

It was a hit!

I got this for the family to listen to and it captivated everyone! We all enjoyed it and had fun guessing who we thought the culprit was!

nice and wonderful

super fun, just what we needed this Christmas Season, delightful, I have to keep writing to 15 words

Wonderful for kids of all ages

I loved everything about this book. The story was fun and a plot challenge for younger listeners. Normally I don’t care for background music in audiobooks, but the cheery Christmas music fit perfectly into the story. It wasn’t too loud, it wasn’t too soft. It was just right 😀.
Mr Miller’s narration is first rate. I will definitely be reading more of these. Thank you

Kids loved it

Great for the little ones. They loved hearing the elf tales right before Christmas. Not worth an entire credit. Wish audible did half credit sales for these shorter books.

Cute family friendly story!

We loved the story, but it was short, only 90 minutes long, so I feel like it shouldn’t be required to use a full credit on it. That was kind of disappointing.

Fun elf story

I learned so much h about elves 😀. And how one reindeer can talk and so many more things about Christmas. Fun story
