What happens when a silly little elf grabs an eraser off a shelf? In this charming Christmas story, a mischievous elf jumps around a boy's picture erasing things as he goes along.

He reached and began to erase all my work.
He first took a snowflake and then gave me a smirk...

With adorable watercolor illustrations and an original pencil drawing from Kelley's own sons Lukas (11) and Max(8) An Elf Erased My Picture is a charming picture book for children of all ages. In addition, as part of the Draw Your Own Ending series, it also requires that the reader draws, too. After the elf has erased most of the picture, the boy asks you if you would help him to draw back his original Christmas scene (At KelleyDonner.com you can find free printouts of all the drawing pages and coloring sheets). An Elf Erased My Picture is a fun read aloud and a great stocking stuffer for children who love to draw.

Kelley Donner studied art in the US and has a Masters in Illustration and Book Design from the Cambridge School of Art in the UK. She has written and illustrated various children's books including School is More Than a Building and the Washington Post featured The Day the Lines Changed. Originally from Kansas, Kelley currently lives with her family in Munich, Germany. When she's not busy drawing, you'll find her outside playing with her three boys.

Merry Christmas!
