Story Time. Any Time!

Today's Story Time is

Pig the Elf

By Matt Aaron Blabey

Santa was coming! 'Twas bigger than big!

No-one loves Christmas more than Pig.

And the world's greediest Pug will stay up all night to get his presents!

Loveable, cranky and greedy Pig the Pug is set for a hilarious Christmas adventure. After demanding a very long list of outrageous presents, including a drum kit, rocket and fairy-floss maker, Pig is about to meet Santa... and he might just get taught a very important lesson about the spirit of Christmas.
