Christmas carol that provides a snapshot of
all the unfortunate events taking place, from
wooden soldiers who break rank and fight
to defective reindeer harnesses that come
with cowbells. But in the end, Leon realizes
that his work is important and that being
a Christmas elf has its rewards. Perfect
to feature an administrator or teacher as
narrator. Simply delightful!

On Joyful Wing—Michael Sweeney.
Drawing on two early American hymn
tunes, here is a beautifully written lyric
piece that contrasts moments of calm

adaption of the familiar hymn Nearer, My
God, to Thee.
