"Delightfully executed, this is an enjoyable addition to the canon of picture books for young children that depict the Christmas holiday."

Welcome to North’s Pole!
We’re taking you on a magical adventure all around the Pole, with the help of North and her new friends. You’ll get to follow the elves through their orientation day AKA the day they begin their journey in Santa’s Village. For most elves, their North Pole adventure is all mapped out and ready to go, but this year one of the new recruits arrives without a job assigned. Lucky for her, North is up for the challenge, and together, the two test out plenty of perfect jobs that any newbie would love to do. But after trying out one job after another, both North and her new friend come to realize that her true talent has been inside of her all along.
With beautiful illustrations and a tale told in rhyme, kids will realize that just like our elves, they too will find out who they’re meant to be.
About The Authors
Lindsay Yacovino & Courtney D’Annunzio are sisters, born and raised in New Jersey. Both professionals and moms, they’ve taken inspiration from their families and holiday memories to create a magical world beyond the page. A story written in love, hope, and the spirit of the holidays, Lindsay & Courtney hope that readers of all ages will find the believers inside themselves and that they too will discover who they truly are.
Met with rave reviews from their readers, Lindsay & Courtney have had the honor to share their story with students and teachers at schools all across the country. They’ve been able to share the magic of the season, the joy in becoming a writer, and the lesson of following your heart in finding who you are, spreading a little holiday spirit everywhere they’ve gone. They’re looking forward to many more years of North’s Pole magic gracing the holiday season!
❤️ Lindsay & Courtney
School Visits And Appearances
Author visits are incredible opportunities for students to connect with a real life author and learn the process that goes into creating a book. After meeting over 50 classes of students and teachers in just our first season, we were able to inspire future writers and spread some holiday magic while doing so.
North’s Pole, while festive and cheerful, shares an important message too. Our elves learn that every elf has a purpose or a calling in life and it’s up to them to find who they are and who they’re meant to be. Just like us humans we have a similar path in life, starting at a very young age, and we hope that North and her friends will help remind kids that each and everyone of them have a purpose and an inner talent that they’ll one day find within themselves.
We truly enjoy providing kids with a meaningful lesson that they can take with them and hopefully be inspired to create something beautiful of their own!
