Tomten Saves Christmas - Tomten räddar julen: A Bilingual Swedish Christmas tale in Swedish and English (My Books About Sweden)

This gorgeous, bilingual Nordic tale, in the tradition of Astrid Lindgren’s Tomten Tales and Ulf Stark’s The Yule Tomte and the Little Rabbits, will have readers of all ages believing in the magic of Christmas. This is one to pull out every year and treasure!

Grumpy old Farm Tomten just wants to stay at home and avoid the terrible Christmas celebrations altogether. His cousin, Yule Tomten, is up to his ears in Christmas presents and thousands of children waiting. With just two more days till Christmas, will an invite for Christmas coffee be enough to melt Farm Tomten’s grumpy heart so they can save Christmas together?

En sur gammal gårdstomte som bara vill stanna hemma och slippa den förskräckliga julen. En stressad jultomte med julklappar upp över öronen och tusentals barn som väntar. Med bara två dagar kvar till julafton – räcker en inbjudan till julkaffe för att tina gårdstomtens hjärta så att de kan rädda julen tillsammans?

This is a bilingual, fun, Scandinavian Christmas tale with crunching snow, red cottages and the traditional Swedish character of the farm gnome, or tomten. The story is told in both English and Swedish - so the whole family can enjoy reading it together.

Written and translated by award-winning Swedish author Linda Liebrand, Tomten Saves Christmas has been illustrated by Austeja Slavickaite Wojtczak.
