Summary:
"In this for-parent's-eyes-only parody of Carol Aebersold's children's picture book
Christmas
classic "The
Elf
on the
Shelf
," readers laugh along with Horace as he goes AWOL from his
Christmas
duties. This photo-story set to verse is the unauthorized (and hilarious) tale of one disgruntled little helper with a gift for making mischief. "As a member of Santa's spy squad, I headed down south for the holidays to help the big guy decide who's naughty and who's nice. It was going to be a wonderful change of pace from the hammering, sanding, painting, and wrapping happening in Ol' St. Nick's workshop. Or so I thought."--Horace the
Elf
. Horace has been a professional
elf
for more than 250 years. Before being sent out to spy on and judge small children, he worked the assembly line in Santa's Workshop. He currently lives in his mother's basement in the North Pole, though he's hoping that with the residuals from this story he can finally buy a place of his own. Brendan O'Neill is editor of Spiked, an online magazine"--Provided by publisher.
