A captivating collection of Norwegian folk tales and winter stories that bring the magic of a Nordic Christmas to life.

In Christmas Fireside Stories; Round the Yule Log, folklorist Peter Christen Asbjørnsen presents a selection of traditional tales drawn from Norway’s rich storytelling heritage. Set against snowy landscapes and long winter nights, these fairy tales and fireside stories feature mischievous trolls, wise old folk, and glimpses of Yuletide customs deeply rooted in Scandinavian folklore.

Accompanied by evocative illustrations, this collection offers readers of all ages a window into the wonders, morals, and seasonal rituals of a distinctly Norwegian Christmas.
