This series presents enchanting tales of a small gnome-like creature who quietly watches over a sleeping farm at night. Wearing a distinctive red cap, he moves silently under the moonlight, leaving tiny footprints. His presence offers a sense of protection to both humans and animals, whispering promises of spring's arrival. These beautifully illustrated classics evoke a serene winter atmosphere while teaching children about care and responsibility.
No one knows when he came to the farm, no one has ever seen him, but everyone knows it is the troll Tomten who walks about the lonely old farmhouse on a winter's night, talking to all the animals and reminding them of the promise of Spring.Adapted by Astrid Lindgren from a poem by Viktor Rydberg
