From Booklist
Ages 4-7. In the Santa's workshop of Novak's imagination, elves are mustachioed men wearing suits and matching bowler hats. They throw orders around because, here, rank has its privileges. And Irwin--being low elf on the totem pole--doesn't have any. So it is that soon after Santa leaves on Christmas Eve, Irwin discovers a present that has been left behind and decides to deliver it himself (since the others ignore his pleas). Our determined hero (with sidekick dogfriend Blitz) ventures into "unexplored territory"--dodging wolves, an avalanche, the abominable snowman, and sharks--and finally delivers the gift to Sam, a pigtailed little girl. But it is not the last Christmas present. That turns out to be a big surprise for all the elves at the North Pole. Like his Elmer Blunt's Open House , Novak's picture book is reminiscent of a comic book, with bright acrylic paintings, conversation bubbles, and clean page design. Kathryn Broderick
