The Blueberry Pie Elf
by Jane Thayer
illustrated by Seymour Fleishman
One day the people who live with Elmer, who was a little elf, baked a blueberry pie. The minute Elmer had a chance he
jumped right into that rich, melting pie and ate till his elfin stomach bulged. It was delicious, and Elmer wanted another one
right away. But nobody can see an elf, or hear an elf, or feel an elf, so none of his people knew he was trying to tell them
something.
Then, when Elmer was unhappily sampling cherry pie, he had an inspiration! But, dear reader, we can't give the ending away. Let's just say that Elmer's ingenious solution satisfied his craving for blueberry pie and, being a polite elf, he thanked his people.
Elmer has been the most appealing and industrious elf around for nearly fifty years, and he'll continue to delight children for generations to come. Seymour Fleishman's charming illustrations transform our familiar household world into the tiny world of elves.
