About The Elf on the Shelf in brief
The Elf on the Shelf was written in 2004 by Carol Aebersold and her daughter Chanda Bell. The book tells a Christmas-themed story, written in rhyme, that explains how Santa Claus knows who is naughty and nice. It describes elves visiting children from Thanksgiving to Christmas Eve, after which they return to the North Pole until the next holiday season. In 2013, the book hit the No. 1 spot on the USA Today Bestsellers List. A 30-minute animated special titled An Elf’s Story: The Elf On The Shelf aired on CBS in November 2011. In October 2013, The Elf onTheShelf: A Birthday Tradition was released. Written and illustrated by the same team that created the first book, it offers instructions for inviting a scout elf to visit for a child’s birthday party.

The Gnome Kit was parodied in the 2016 episode of The Simpsons: After Krust After Nightmare. A Jewish version of the toy was created in 2011 by Benjamin Goikns: Elchik: Mensch on a Bench: a stuffed toy that looks a bit like a rabbi or a Hasidic Jew or a rabbi.
