Alfred is a computer savvy elf (www.falala.com) that works for Santa. Even though Olcott J. Elf (Chief of Elf Operations) thinks Alfred is wasting his time, he continues working on his program. He downloads Santa’s good-girl, good-boy list onto a floppy. But there’s a glitch in the program and all the children get the wrong gifts. How will Alfred fix the problem?

This is a fun, modern story about an elf who wants Santa’s trip around the world to go faster because of new technology. It’s fun and silly! Of course at the end maybe they should have added that Alfred should work out the kinks in his system because it doesn’t work too well haha.

Cute little story about an elf who thought he'd update Santa's technology, with interesting results. (owned print copy)

What happens when a junior elf mechanizes the mail, package handling, and the sleigh? Disaster and chaos or unexpected surprises? A romping good time when Santa's list and delivery system gets mechanized. You'll have to read it see Santa's reaction.
