Christmas at the Rotunda #[1955]

In "The Shoemaker and the Elves," a heartwarming tale from 1955, a kind-hearted shoemaker and his wife find their lives transformed through a simple act of kindness. When Santa’s elves and the shoemaker cross paths, their shared generosity leads to an unexpected partnership—and a surprising new home at the North Pole, where the shoemaker becomes the elves’ trusted tailor. Written by Elsa Jane Werner and illustrated by Richard Scarry, with full art and cover by Scarry, this free Christmas special blends whimsy and warmth in a story that’s as charming as it is rare.
