Grump the Yule Tomte lives all alone, which is exactly how he likes it! He's waiting for Christmas to arrive when all of a sudden a gust of wind steals his mittens from the washing line and his hat from his head. That's the last straw -- he won't be the Yule Tomte any more! Binny and Barty, the rabbit children, live with their family in the forest. They've never heard of Christmas, or the Yule Tomte, until the wind brings them some strange gifts... All the animals in the forest prepare for the arrival of Christmas. They make presents, bake sweet treats and even write a song. But will the Yule Tomte ever bring Christmas to the big forest? This charming and funny Christmas story of a grumpy tomte and the hopeful little rabbits is told over twenty-five chapters -- one for each day of Advent -- with delightful festive illustrations. Perfect for families to share together.

Tales For The Yuletide: The collection of seven stories in this book are all about gift-giving. But the gifts are of the medaphorical type, not extravigant trinkets wrapped with pretty ribbons and paid for with a credit card. Instead, they are of the kind which can only come from the human heart. Set in different locations and in various periods in time, and regardless of the characters' ages or sex, the stories were all inspired by the purest meaning of Christmas; the exchanging of that which is priceless. So grab a box of tissue, get comfortable, and fall in love with Christmas all over again.
