You wave down your elf friends to ask for help. Twinkle-Toes, the tiniest elf in your group with sparkly blue braids, skids to a stop beside you.
"What's wrong?" she asks, juggling three toy trains at once.
"The list is missing," you tell her. "We need to find it fast!"
Gingersnap, who always smells like fresh gingerbread cookies, gasps and drops a scoop of jingle bells. "Oh snowflakes! Santa needs that list!"
Snowspark, who polishes sleigh bells until they shine like stars, points toward the frosty workshop windows. "If the wind carried the list away, it probably flew toward the North Star Clearing," he says. "That's where the magic winds swirl together. Lots of things get blown there."
Just then, Tinselberry zooms over riding a sparkly magic snow scooter. It hums with a soft glow and leaves a trail of glittery snowflakes behind it.
"I can lend you my scooter!" he says proudly. "It's super speedy and extra snowy!"
You peek out the window and see the North Star Clearing twinkling far, far away. You look back at the scooter. Walking would be slow… But the scooter might be a little too wild. You have never driven one, it might be a little too speedy to get the hang of.
