I honestly did believe this shelf gig was going to be great. 'Get out and see the world,' they said. 'Experience the joy of wide-eyed kids, holiday cheer, and the Christmas spirit,' they promised. 'Finally leave your parents' basement for once in two hundred and sixty-seven years,' they told me. I was sold.
And off I went. As a member of Santa's spy squad, I headed down south for the holidays to help the big guy decide who's naughty and who's nice. It was going to be a wonderful change of pace from the screwing, hammering, sanding, painting, and wrapping happening in Ol' St. Nick's workshop.
Or so I thought . . . ~Horace the Elf
In this for-parent's-eyes-only parody of the popular holiday title, The Elf on the Shelf, readers laugh along with Horace as he goes AWOL from his Christmas duties. This photo-story set to verse is the unauthorized (and hilarious) tale of one disgruntled little helper with a gift for making mischief.

Nasty vulgar book!!!!! :(:(:(
I didn't realize it was an adult book. I would hope no adult would let their children see this awful book.

Elf book gone bad.
This book is not at all what I expected it to be. I thought it was going to give cute ideas about things to have the Elf on the shelf do...only naughty things, but instead it's just a story about one bad elf. And not a very good story.
