Hi there!
Welcome back to Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers.
I know, I know...we've already posted today, but the holidays are FAST approaching, and the book season has kicked into high gear, thus another post to delight and enchant you today! This time around, we welcome The Children's Book Review! The title's target audience is the kiddos, and MOST CERTAINLY the kiddos at heart! Age is just a number after all, and keeping that spark of magic, that spirit of the season alive within us, goes a long way in keeping us younger than our years, So, if you're ready, let's take a look between the epages of a very special holiday Picture Book that is ready and waiting to make your acquaintance this season...
Merry Christmas, Eve!

About the book...
“The day before Christmas is a very special day,
That never had its own name.
But that all changed when one special elf,
Rose to glory and fame.
Eve was an elf with such get up and go,
She worked hard and loved to play.
But the Head Elf ran Christmas with an iron fist,
And this was what he had to say…”

Each and every year, the holidays seem to come upon us faster and faster. The calendar pages turn at a wild pace, all counting down to not only the end of the year, but the arrival of one particularly jolly man in red, generally known to be in the company of a few flying reindeer, who just so happens to associate with elves on a daily basis. Those elves aren't just his neighbors or his friends, but his coworkers that help keep him and the entire holiday on track! They take their jobs pretty seriously, but not overtly so, because all work and no play makes ANYONE a less than jolly, less than merry person of any size. Taking the fun out of the holiday would make the Christmas spirit shrink in all of us...and then what would the holiday be like? Well, thanks to one elf on a power trip, we're about to find out...but thanks to another elf that remembers the true spirit of the season, we may still be able to make merry and be bright.
This was a wonderful story filled with magically colorful illustrations that reminds us to think beyond the busy, and the rushing. Take time for the things that really matter, like family, friends, caroling, holiday movies, ugly sweater days, family pj nights, and whatever else makes your holiday spirit soar...because the bigger the merriment, the greater the rewards, and the easier it is to keep that feeling alive throughout the year.

About the author....
Adam Wallace has written stories about elves before (How to Catch an Elf), but Eve is by far his favorite elf!
Adam also has a mother who still makes him write a letter to Santa every year, and puts a stocking at the end of his bed … he doesn’t mind!
With over 82 books published, Adam believes Eve can outshine them all!
