Afternoon of the Elves

Janet Taylor Lisle

She and Hillary spend hours fixing the tiny stick houses and the miniature Ferris wheel so the elves won’t move away. But as Hillary is drawn further into Sara-Kate’s world, she learns there are other mysteries besides the elves. Why doesn’t anyone ever see Sara-Kate’s mother? And why isn’t anyone allowed in her house?
