Elf Night

32 pp. | Carolrhoda | April, 2002 | Library ISBN 1-57505-512-0 $$15.95
(4) PS Illustrated by Peter Weevers. A boy slips outside at night to catch a glimpse of elves cavorting in the moonlight. The verses create a sense of urgency: "You forgot your slippers. / Never never mind. / Magic is calling. / Look ahead, look behind." Despite a somewhat tedious design, illustrations in shades of blue and gray enhance the mysterious atmosphere; the elves, with their flowing, fluttering garments, are diminutive without being overly cute.
