The Tomten
by Astrid Lindgren
The Tomten is a classic Swedish Christmas story that has been reminding children of the promise of spring for decades. The story follows a small, kind-hearted gnome who visits a farm one wintry night to make sure that all of the animals are safe and warm.

On Christmas Eve, the Tomten makes a special visit to the farm. He brings gifts for all of the animals, and he makes sure that everyone is comfortable and happy.
The animals on the farm love the Tomten. They know that he is always there for them, and they look forward to his visit every Christmas Eve.
