-- The Horn Book Magazine
'A wonderful yuletide excursion into the magical winter world of the Swedish traditional Yule Tomte.'
-- Children's Bookwatch
'It's the perfect storybook for families to share together, and children will enjoy the amusing illustrations, particularly of the animals with whom they will identify.'
-- Kindling
'We say... the perfect book to share in the lead up to Christmas -- children will be eagerly awaiting each new chapter!'
-- Creative Steps, Winter 2014

-- Bridges, Spring 2015
'This wonderful picture book is arranged in the form of twenty-five short chapters, one chapter for each day of advent. With lovely artwork and a heartwarming story, this beautifully presented picture book would make a wonderful gift for the holiday season.'
