t's like to be on the naughty list. Now, she has a say in who makes the cut at Christmas. Can Ruthless find a way to keep kids off the naughty list for good?

Once an ordinary-if mischievous-little girl from Point Pleasant, Ruthless has learned through her adventures at Santa's workshop what it means to be kind and have empathy for others. Now, she has been entrusted with ownership of the entire naughty list.

Since Ruthless has firsthand experience with the naughty list, she begins to hope that she can keep more children off the list. But to do so, she will first have to learn to be even more selfless than before-because leaders have to help the people around them!

By helping more elves at the North Pole, and by using her characteristic bluntness to talk misbehaving kids into having better attitudes, she just might make Christmas this year the best Santa's ever had!

The second book in the Ruthless the Elf series, Chad E. Henry and Dakota A. Tallman bring another slam dunk, virtue-packed adventure to the Christmas aisle at your local bookstore. After all, Ruthless may by a little intense sometimes-but she's pretty adorable, too
