Now Santa’s plan, you see, is this,
Although it may seem queer,
The kids from Golden Cove can’t choose
Their gift from him this year.
The gifts you children choose will go
To kids whose names are new.
And as you choose their gifts for them,
They’ll choose your gifts for you.
Some children in the village of Golden Cove are naughty and others are nice, but when a mysterious elf with a message from Santa arrives, all are willing to listen – and even, perhaps, to learn that Christmas isn’t all about getting the perfect gifts. Instead, it’s about the things you are willing to give. With a story that will warm hearts and inspire people of all ages, this card-sized booklet will complement Christmas all season long.
16 pages, too short for consideration for the Whitney, right?
