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 hs 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.
There was once a friendly ghost, by the name of Gus, who lived in
an old house in the country. Mr. and Mrs. Scott and their twins,
Susie and Sammy, lived there too during the summer. Then autumn
came and the Scott family left. Which meant Gus had nothing to do
but sit around.
One day, during a walk, he met Mouse, who was cold and hungry.
"Come spend the winter at my house " cried Gus.
Thus begins an unlikely but heartwarming friendship. First
published in 1962, children have delighted in this story and other
Gus the Ghost books for over fifty years. Seymour Fleishman's
sweet, nostalgic illustrations bring Gus, the Scotts and Mouse to
life.
