Product Description
Review
'It would be hard to find a nicer bedtime story. Beautifully painted, quiet moonlit scenes and poetic words tell of the Tomten, a small elf-like person who lives on a farm. It is a beautiful cosy tale of winter bedtimes, very comforting and definitely one of our favourites.' - Hilary Woolf with Isaac (age 4), Education Otherwise, October 2004
Product Description
At night, when all is quiet around the farm -- that's when the Tomten wakes up. He is the one who looks after everything while the farmer and his family are sleeping.

Many years ago I read this to my children - and I loved it as much as they did. The artwork is very beautiful, and the story very touching! I'm now looking forward to reading it to my grandchildren.

"And he speaks to them, in Tomten language, a silent little language that only children understand"
Lyrical and beautifully illustrated. A winter bedtime treat.

mysterious
I liked this story as a child. I liked the slight mystery about it and the calm repetitiveness of the story. A good story for a cold and stormy winter evening in front of a fire. Read more

For younger children
I bought this book for my 4 year old daughter but when I read it on arrival it was clearly for younger children. The text was rather repetative and, I must say, a bit dreary. Read more
