The only thing Kara has ever wanted for Christmas was a pony. Every year, her list was the same – one pony (pretty please with sprinkles on top?). Every year, she got pajamas and plastic horse models, but no pony. Her hopes were high when she and her mother moved out to her grandparents' old farm. But instead of ponies, she found a spoiled fairy princess!
When she reluctantly agrees to search for the fairy's missing sugar bowl, she discovers a whole society of fairies, gnomes, and woodland creatures. With magic everywhere, will Kara finally get her wish?

The week before Christmas is probably the most stressful week for the Christmas elves. Not only they've been working hard the whole year to make all the presents for children, but the last week before the Santa's journey is all about finishing and counting. There are dozens, hundreds even, little elves dressed in red and green robes.
Their hats are pointy with a bell hanging from the top. Their faces are always smiling and the smallest things make them extremely happy. Santa's workshop is the biggest, the widest and the tallest hall in all of the North. Inside the workshop, Christmas elves make, put together, paint and wrap Christmas presents. Every elf has its job. Some of them make toys, some of them color them and some use the shiniest wrapping paper to make beautiful gifts for children.
