From School Library Journal
PreS-Gr 1—The sound of jingle bells on Christmas Eve wakes a little girl who finds a mysterious cookie thief has left a trail of crumbs from the snack intended for Santa. Readers fall in line as she follows the trail, joining a mouse, an elf, and a reindeer along the way before discovering the cookie-munching Santa. Despite his presence on the cover, the titular elf plays a minor role in this breezy chain tale, where page turns invite readers to guess who and what waits just around the corner. The rhyming text doesn't always scan, and the digitally created illustrations are friendly but unremarkable. VERDICT "Elf on the Shelf" fans will be disappointed, but this title might work for larger collections looking for fast read-alouds. Strictly additional.—Brooke Sheets, Los Angeles Public Library
