Christopher Pop-In-Kins is the magical Christmas elf who loves kids as much as Santa does. That's why Santa granted him one special wish: to be with your children before Santa makes his yearly rounds.

Christopher knows that just before Thanksgiving the kids will hear his story—he hopes your child will get to hear it too! Because after your child learns how Christopher-Pop-In-Kins convinced Santa to let him leave the North Pole each year, Christopher gets to pop in for a visit!

Here's how your child's new favorite holiday tradition works:

1. The day after Thanksgiving, you and your child snuggle up some place cozy—perhaps your favorite chair with her “go every place” blanket tucked around you both.

2. Read the heart warming story of how Christopher Pop-In-Kins came to visit the children before Christmas day every year. The brilliant illustrations on each page add as much color and magic to the story as the wee elf himself!

3. Enjoy the thrill of hiding Christopher Pop-In-Kins some place in your home for your child to find!

Flora Johnson created Christopher Pop-In-Kins with the desire to bring families together during the holidays. She understood how easy it is to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the season. She also knew an elf named Christopher had the power to remind us all of what makes Christmas special: love, togetherness and the memories that stay with us forever.
