Ava and the Little Folk

The most magical things can come in tiny packages!

In the Arctic, tales of tiny people who live on the land abound. This children’s story follows the adventures of an orphan named Ava who is left to fend for himself by the adults in his village. One day, cold and alone, Ava stumbles upon a group of magical dwarves who finally show him how it feels to have a home of his own.
