8 tiny reindeer : an advent calendar adventure
(Book)

Chiefly illustrations.

"This book si like an advent calendar! Read one chapter a day, every day through December. (But we won't blame you if you binge-read it all in one sitting. It's a pretty elf-tastic story...)"

"In the not-too-distant future, Santa’s entire operation has been automated. Machines, not elves, make all the toys. And drones transport the presents around the world on Christmas Eve, not Santa’s reindeer. Since Santa no longer needs much help, he’s let go all but two of his elves, Elvis and Delfina, and released his 8 tiny reindeer into the wild. Only, just days before Christmas, Santa learns that the wealthy tycoon who supplied him with all his technology, Larchmont Quickbuck, is plotting to take over Christmas and send Santa packing! Santa knows his only hope of saving the holiday from Quickbuck is to bring back the true source of Christmas magic--his 8 tiny reindeer. But will Elvis and Delfina find them in time?" --publisher's website
