Book Description
Burn, Christmas! Burn! is a humorous Christmas book about Santa’s Elves who are tired of being third-rate drones in his oppressive sweatshop. Santa is greedy and old. Mrs. Claus is the crotchety and mean CFO. And Rudolph? He’s got a score to settle too. Years of backbreaking labor have finally done in the Elve's patience. They've reached boiling point. They're mad as hell and not going to take it anymore. What to do? Well, overthrow Christmas, of course. Thus the Elve's plot: to turn the reindeer into raindeer stew (guided into the reindeer stables by Rudolph's nose); booby-trap the children's presents; smash Santa's factory. Unless...all the little children (naughty, nice, who cares!) agree to send demands for elfin freedom to Santa, instead of their wish lists... This book incorporates many beloved Christmas tales only to turn them on their head. Or knock their heads together.
