I have told you before about my love of Elsa Beskow books. I collect them and am so pleased they are all being reprinted in English by Floris Books. I decided since Christmas was approaching to order 'Peter and Lotta's Christmas'. It arrived on Christmas eve and what a sweet book it is!
It captures the joys of a child's thoughts and wishes at Christmas time.
The illustrations that Elsa Beskow created are timeless. They are so warm and inviting that you wish you could crawl into the book.
A great book for children of all ages!
Merry Christmas to all of you around the world! I hope you feel the magic of a child this Christmas day...

Merry Christmas to you and Jos, too. I hope you are enjoying the holiday as much as I am. It's so great to be able to let go of all the stress from work and just do what comes to my mind. Such a pleasure.
Merry Christmas Heidi! Isnt it lovely just to spend a few days enjoying company , creating festive meals, and relaxing.
Lovely book, Heidi!
And your snow is melting rapidly, I bet you don't like it! We had a few hours of sleep last night (it's all in the game) and are rolling off our chairs now ... still some hours to go ;)
Sleep well for later!
Hugs, Carolien
