Fairytales, Myths and Legends

On small silent feet, the Tomten tiptoes through the snow, keeping watch over the farm on chilly winter nights. One night, a cunning fox comes by. How will the Tomten guard the chickens, and help the hungry fox? These classic stories are a delight for young children, depicting the traditional Swedish character of the house elf, or tomten. This is a beautiful collector's combined edition of Astrid Lindgren's two classic Tomten tales, The Tomten and The Tomten and the Fox.
