There’s trouble at the North Pole. With Faith and Hope at perilously low levels, it looks like Christmas may have to be cancelled this year. Now, Yuletide’s only chance lies with Jing Els and Hollee – the Glimmers - in The Glimmers Save Christmas. I had a chance to read this book, the third in a series by award-winning writer Robert Agnello and illustrator Nick Meola.
In Christmastown, all the reindeer have "can'tflyitis" and the toy-building elves are feeling dim. Elf Extraordinaire Roger keeps working, though, and his hope and faith bring just what the North Pole needs.
The Glimmers glow when we make good choices and fade into Dimmers when poor choices are made. Roger's faith and hope help the Glimmers shine and recruit other Glimmers to help Santa's sleigh fly.
The Glimmers books focus on virtues – truth, respect, hope, compassion – that will inspire children to make this a better world for us all. “I hope The Glimmers help parents, family members, and teachers have a larger discussion with the children in their lives and show them how they can become a force for good,” says author Robert Agnello.
