Mer om författaren

Stephanie Campisi is an Australian-born author based in Southern California. The author of more than 20 books, including Luis and Tabitha and Quacks Like a Duck, she loves nothing more than a Christmas pavlova (her grandma’s recipe)! Susanna Covelli was born in a small town in Piedmont, Italy, earned an MA in architecture, and followed her passion for art and decided to attend a specialization course in both traditional and digital illustration at Scuola Iternazionale di Comics in Turin, where she now teaches. Her art expresses her own imagination and inspiration from nature, and she has always been attracted by sinuous shapes, baroque style, and out-of-the-ordinary perspective.

Recensioner i media

A fun holiday tale reminiscent of ’Twas the Night Before Christmas. When a catastrophe threatens the holiday, 12 little elves take off on a global mission to help save Christmas. Told in catchy rhymes and paired with vibrant illustrations of the elves in different predicaments, the story takes readers on a journey to different countries, showcasing their unique traditions and customs. From Sweden’s yule goats to Iceland’s book-gifting traditions and Australia’s beach cricket competitions, each spread introduces a new aspect of holiday celebrations around the world. The simple yet engaging storyline makes it perfect for early readers or a fun family read-aloud. Illustrations are bright and cheerful and help bring the elves, of various skin tones and body shapes, to life. VERDICT A perfect way to introduce children to diverse Christmas traditions and cultures.
