About this ebook
The fate of Christmas rests in the hands of four siblings. Can they break a mysterious curse before Christmas is ruined forever?
Eleven-year-old Max Watson is looking for adventure. He never expects to find it in his boring old backyard.
While digging through his overcrowded shed, Max stumbles upon a strange cube. By pressing buttons and pulling the lever, the shed transforms into a portal. Max and his three sisters are transported to the North Pole and straight into a startling mystery.
Santa is in trouble. The elves have gone bad and are destroying everything. The countdown to Christmas has begun, and Santa has only broken toys to fill his sleigh.
As the fate of Christmas hangs in the air, four siblings must work together to break the spell. If they fail, the North Pole will be destroyed, and Christmas will be ruined forever.

The Mystery of the Cursed Elves - Mitchel Maree
The Visitor in the Shed
P49#y1Max Watson woke up to the sun streaming through his window. He jumped out of bed and threw back the curtains. After a week-long rainy spell, he couldn’t wait to get outside. He quickly got dressed before bursting out of his room.
The sun’s out,
he yelled, thundering through the hall and down the stairs.
What’s all that noise?
his father asked when Max came barreling into the kitchen.
The sun’s out,
Max repeated, gesturing toward the window. I need to get out.
Grabbing his sweatshirt and shoes, Max was out the door.
Max was the oldest of four children and the only boy. Though lonely at times, his active imagination and love for adventure kept him entertained.
Back inside the house, the three Watson girls made their way slowly down the stairs.
Max woke us up,
Sophie whined to her father.
He’s outside already,
Dad commented.
Sophie rolled her eyes dramatically. As the oldest girl, she felt it was her responsibility to look after her siblings and keep them safe.
Violet was the perfect example of a typical middle child. She was quiet, observant, and easily followed along with her more dominant siblings. Like Max, she had a highly active imagination, but she believed in all things magical.
Parker, the youngest, was absolutely fearless. She threw caution to the wind, running into things headfirst without a second thought.
Let’s go see what Max is doing,
Parker said, not wanting to miss out on anything.
I’m still sleepy,
Sophie whined.
I’m hungry,
Violet added.
Suit yourself; I’m going out,
Parker said.
Why don’t you all go outside?
Mom suggested. I’ll make pancakes and call you when they’re ready.
Fine.
Sophie gave another eye roll.
Get your scooters,
Max called when the girls came out. Let’s race down the street.
Sophie walked to the shed and scrunched her nose at the mess. Dad had shoved things haphazardly into the shed last week in a rush to get everything under cover before the rain came. Sophie spotted her scooter buried underneath some patio chairs. Violet peered around her sister, looking for her own scooter.
Sophie, look back there,
Violet said.
What? Where?
Sophie struggled to pull the tangled chairs off her scooter.
In the corner, what is that?
Violet said.
It looks like a stuffed toy,
Sophie told her. Dad probably tossed it in last week. Parker, did you leave one of your dolls outside?
What?
Parker brought her scooter to a skidding stop in front of the shed.
There’s a doll in the back of the shed,
Sophie pointed.
I’ll get it.
Parker climbed over the pile of patio furniture. She
