The secret of the cottage elves

Summary: If you live in or near any resort town, you've seen the cottages along the shoreline that bustle with activity all summer but stand closed up and abandoned during the long months of winter. Or are they? This delightful tale reveals a little known fact. Unbeknownst to cottagers, no sooner than they pack up their bags and head for home in the fall, trespassers move in! Elves! Cottage elves, no less, the shyest but most fun-loving of all the woodland elves! [From publisher's description].
