The Advent Elf by Paivi Stalder

A little holiday magic—elf style! On the first night of Advent, a little man jumps out of the Advent wreath demanding that Paul get him home again. But how? By paper airplane? Through the pages of the Big Book of Brownies and Goblins? Paul has a problem! And when it’s all over, he has to wonder: Did an elf really visit him last night, or was it only a dream?
