Description

The newest addition to the 12 Little Elves regional series, this counting picture book by Trish Madson, with illustrations by Sadie Han, is sure to get you in the Christmas spirit

’Twas Christmas in Georgia, and 12 elves were sent to see who was sleeping . . . away the elves went! In 12 Little Elves Visit Georgia, 12 charming elves travel throughout the state to see who is still awake before Santa comes. Along the way, they visit iconic landmarks and curiosities, all bedecked in holly and holiday fun. From the Jekyll Island trail to the Okefenokee Swamp, Anna Ruby Falls, and more, these little elves take in the fuqua orchids at the botanical gardens, float down the Chattahoochee River, sample all the flavors at the Coca-Cola museum, and enjoy a juicy Georgia peach. Their last stop? Your home, of course. Jump in bed!

You have no idea how many times I have reread and sung the entire book in a day!

The book is fun, bright and cheerful and now I miss Christmas!

The illustrations are so lively and entertaining. Get to know the little lively lovely elves and I guarantee you that you will sing as you read along. You just can’t help it!

Thank you, Familius, for the advance reading copy.

A fun and lively Christmas holiday picture book to share with young children. The regional editions make it so much more personal and relatable for young readers as they explore and learn more about their state (or another they may be interested in) through 12 charming elves. A great gift idea.

This book is very cute! I'm excited to gift this to a child in my family whose parent is in the military; their last posting was in Georgia where they spent lots of weekends at Jekyll Island, so I know they will love the Jekyll Island reference in this sweet holiday book. A simple, rhyming children's book that names lots of Georgia places. Nice quick read, would be perfect for a nighttime read during the holidays. Would definitely recommend this to anyone with young children who lives in Georgia and celebrates Christmas.

Such a cute holiday picture book to read to young children!

I really loved that yes this was a holiday story, but it featured so many local attractions from Georgia so you were really learning a lot about the state as well. Would be a perfect book for a child either living in Georgia already, or even maybe moving soon (how fun would that be to hype the kid up about the state 🤗).

The illustrations by Sadie Han were fantastic! I feel like the art style really captures the magical feel of the holiday. Each elf was so unique, and beautifully imagined. I feel like every time I flipped a page I was greeted by something new that my eyes would get snagged on. And I LOVED how the local landmarks of Georgia were brought to life, with these little elves hiding all around the landmarks. It was so interesting to see a contrast of these little elves sitting on the beach, playing in a grove of pink flowers, or even in a swamp with alligators! You always think, "oh Santa is coming with his elves" and picture this pristine snow covered setting, but this is such a unique take. Overall so whimsical and fun!

The perfect cozy holiday/Christmas time read. Perfect to read on Christmas Eve right before the big guy makes a visit down the chimney 😉. Especially with the way it ended turning it back around to the children reading it would be so fun to see the kids reactions on Christmas Eve of "OH their talking to us!" 🥰

Thank you Familius, and Net Galley for the ARC copy of this cute holiday story! ❤️

'12 Little Elves Visit Georgia' is so, so lovely. It brings the holidays to Georgia in such a personal way that kids in that state are going to flip over, understandably. The illustrations are bright and gorgeous, soft and reassuring. In all climates and locations, the elves' magic is waiting for the kids to find it and they will devour this story.

This is a delightful and engaging read for the holiday season. Readers follow along as cheerful elves visit the beautiful state of Georgia at Christmas time. The elves discover the beaches, peaches and more that this state has to offer. Children who live in Georgia or who have visited there, will enjoy seeing these beloved landmarks through the eyes of the entertaining elves. Vibrant and whimsical illustrations accompany this joyful tale. Highly recommend this fun and festive book!

This was a very cute short Christmas picture book taking place in Georgia. As a Georgia native, I found this a fun read that would be great for kids during the Christmas season. Thank you NetGalley for this ARC.
