a disgruntled elf who has just started working
in Santa's workshop, is writing journal entries

a humorously arranged Christmas carol that
provides a snapshot of all the unfortunate
events taking place, such as wooden soldiers
who break rank and fight to defective reindeer
harnesses that accidentally come with cowbells.

important and that being a Christmas elf has its
rewards. Perfect to feature an administrator or
teacher as narrator. Simply delightful!
