Little Elfie One

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jane Manning. "Way up in the North / Came a knock upon the door. / Surprise! A mother caroler / And her little carolers four!" This Christmas version of "Over in the Meadow" stretches the limits of both the rhyme scheme and the holiday content: Santa, reindeer, elves, and tree ornaments make sense; not so much mice and kittens. The watercolor illustrations are warm and jolly.
