Grumpy old Farm Tomten just wants to stay at home and avoid the terrible Christmas celebrations altogether. His cousin, Yule Tomten, is up to his ears in Christmas presents and thousands of children waiting.
With just two more days till Christmas, will an invite for Christmas coffee be enough to melt Farm Tomten’s grumpy heart so they can save Christmas together?
This is a bilingual, fun, Scandinavian Christmas tale with crunching snow, red cottages and the traditional Swedish character of the farm gnome, or tomten. The story is told in both English and Swedish - so the whole family can enjoy reading it together.

Linda Liebrand is a Swedish mum and author living in the UK with her Dutch husband, bouncy little boy, and Swiss dog.
Although they mostly speak English at home, Linda decided to start teaching her little boy Swedish when he was about two years old. She soon discovered that it’s hard to get hold of Swedish children’s books abroad, which inspired her to develop a range of bilingual children’s books and fun learning materials for kids learning Swedish abroad.
