Emit the elf, entrusted by Santa to help deliver presents on Christmas Eve, falls out of the sleigh at the very beginning of this all-important holiday trip! In search of Christmas again, Emit travels through all of the holidays of the year, meeting many new friends, while searching for December 25th. What he finds out, he knew all along. The answer to his search was right inside his very own name. 'Emit' is 'Time' spelled backwards, and that's all this plucky little Elf needs -- just a little time with those closest to him.
Has Anyone Seen Christmas? FROM THE PUBLISHER What is time spelled backwards? It¿¿¿s EMIT, and he has been chosen by Santa to navigate his sleigh on Christmas Eve. When Emit falls off the sleigh, he must travel through all the other holidays before he finds Christmas, and its real meaning. Each holiday character, including Baby New Year, Cupid, an Easter Bunny who hops on a pogo stick, and Lady Liberty with her torch, join Emit on his journey in search of Christmas.
Has Anyone Seen Christmas? brings to life the characters from many holidays. By using these characters, children will learn the importance of our past, and the value of traditions. For example, in the Thanksgiving scene, Emit asks Mr. Turkey if he has seen Christmas. All of the holiday characters come together, marching in the band during the Thanksgiving Day Parade, along with the Pilgrims and Native Americans.
Has Anyone Seen Christmas? is a joyful and magical adventure through time with an adorable Christmas elf. The reader will enjoy the thrill of every major holiday, and also be reminded that the spirit of giving is present at Christmas -- and all year long.
