About This Book

A grumpy Yule Tomte decides to quit his Christmas duties after the wind steals his hat and mittens, while a family of rabbit children in the forest discovers the holiday for the very first time. As the animals of the forest come together to prepare for Christmas, an unlikely friendship forms between the old Tomte and the curious young rabbits. Full of Scandinavian charm, this gentle chapter book celebrates kindness, community, and the spirit of the season.
