{"product_id":"the-elf-on-the-shelf-a-christmas-tradition","title":"The Elf on the Shelf - A Christmas Tradition","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe purpose of this book is to encourage the connection children have with Santa Claus. This charming tradition is explained on the front endpaper, whereby a family \"adopts\" an imaginary elf that moves to different positions in the house every day, creating a race to find him each morning. The elf's purpose is to report to Santa about who is being \"naughty or nice\" leading up to Christmas. This is a very pretty, if somewhat dystopian, American production written by a mother and daughter team. While it remains a sweet children's book on the surface, it would make a very interesting case study for senior sociology students.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Love Vintage Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51589073109288,"sku":"51031","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lovevintagebooks.com.au\/products\/the-elf-on-the-shelf-a-christmas-tradition","provider":"Love Vintage Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
