The Elf on a Shelf is an elf that helps Santa watch families so that everyone is being good. He reports back if anyone is bad.
Everyone's elf is different; for instance, my elf is a stuffed animal and Lucia’s elf and Madison’s elves are dolls.
I interviewed Lucia, and she told me all about her elf. For instance, her elf is named Elfie, and Elfie likes to do crazy things. Once Elfie used flour to make a snow angel.
I also interviewed Madison, and she told me that her elf's name is also Elfie, but Madison’s elf is calm.
I interviewed my elf, Jolly, and she told me all about her life as an elf. Jolly told me it takes a long time to get to my house because she lives far, far away, “It is a lot of work making toys for the good kids; when I move, I stay the way I appear to you. I love coming to visit you.” Finally, I asked my elf what her favorite thing was about the holidays, and she said “Spreading joy to families.”
