With only a day and a sprinkle of magic, can Eubie change the hearts of an entire town and save Christmas?

From the publisher
With a captivating story by Harry Connick, Jr. and vibrant illustrations from Dan Andreasen, The Happy Elf is a new holiday classic for the entire family. A wonderful recording of the beloved holiday song “The Happy Elf” by the Grammy Award-winning author is included on the CD. Eubie is the happiest elf at the North Pole. More than anything else, he longs to be a part of Santa’s sleigh team. Instead, he’s stuck checking the naughty-or-nice lists. Until one Christmas Eve he sees something strange: In the whole town of Bluesville, not a single person has been nice. So with a pinch of elfish magic and a magical whoosh, Eubie’s off to Bluesville. But can he turn a whole town of naughty children nice in just one day?
