Bookroo's summary

Princess Eliza, isolated in her snow palace, crafts toys from wood and string but longs for a friend. Her quest leads her to a group of elves in distress—Santa is unwell, and the gift-making is far from complete. Can Eliza's ingenuity and determination save Christmas in time? Discover how a tech-savvy princess might just be the holiday hero everyone needs.

From the publisher

“A welcome twist on a ‘saving Christmas’ story that slyly references familiar fairy tales while placing a tech-savvy princess at its center.” - Publishers Weekly Princess Eliza is lonely in her beautiful snow palace. Stuck inside all day with no one to play with, she figures out how to make almost anything with a few bits of wood and some string–including her own toys! Anything, that is, except the thing she wants most . . . a friend. As she sets off to find one, Eliza is excited to stumble across a group of elves. But – OH, DEAR! – Santa isn’t feeling well, and there are still so many presents to make! Could Princess Eliza be just the person to save Christmas?
