Elmer the Grump

Average rating
4.4 out of 5
Based on 9 Ratings and 4 Reviews

Book Description
First Place award winner in the 1998 National Written & Illustrated By...Contest for Students.

This is a very touching story and a wonderful Christmas book.

A grumpy Elfkin wants everyone to leave him alone. But an injured snail and an orphan boy change his mind.

The narrative is thoughtfully and tenderly told. The water-color illustrations are absolutely beautiful.
