The book “The Yellow Elves†is a short fable about good, hardworking people who arrive when someone is in need of assistance. The Yellow Elves never help those who wish others harm, who are lazy or who forget about their friends. From the Yellow Elves one can learn how to share and give of oneself without expecting anything in return. They fly quietly and unnoticed above our homes and are always ready to provide assistance.

The Yellow Elves
His masterwork, IMO, and one of the finest SF/F stories ever written. Won both the Hugo & Nebula awards.
Joe Slattermill in Night Town:
"At first Night Town seemed as dead as the rest of Ironmine, but then he noticed a faint glow, sick as the vampire lights but more feverish, and with it a jumping music, tiny at first as a jazz for jitterbugging ants. ...."
The Big Mushrooms, sweating as the Big Gambler raises the ante:
" ... the dice-girl, skinnier and taller and longer armed than his Wife even, didn't seem to be wearing much but a pair of long white gloves. She was all right if you went for the type that isn't much more than pale skin over bones with breasts like china doorknobs. ... "
The only discordant notes in this wonderful story are some incongruous pulp-SF images, and maybe that's just me. A near-perfect story.
"Then he turned and headed straight for home, but he took the long way, around the world."
Bravo!
