That's hard topic to talk about in a children's book. It is creative. I like that it is narrated by Santa Clause. Thank you for the review!

This is quite a unique perspective on dying and what happens afterward. I'm not sure if I agree with having children think that they would become elves instead of angels as good or not. I think I prefer the traditional thoughts about angels, and don't feel the need to replace them with elves, but that's just my opinion. Thanks for your review!

i could not have summarized it much better. The book tends to cushion the harsh message being delivered to the target audience. I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing yet.
