Yule Lads Legend: Iceland’s Jólasveinar by Heidi Herman – Review by Anantha Rusum
Yule Lads Legend: Iceland’s Jólasveinar by Heidi Herman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Such a cute story. I am planning to read it to my children and also ask the kiddos in my book club to read it. It is a folklore based out of Iceland where 13 Yule lad kids always go to a village to kidnap naughty children. They take back the children to their mother who is a troll to make a stew.
This year, they decide to leave little gifts and presents to children instead of capturing the children. They understand the joy of giving and realize the euphoria when you see someone happy with your actions.
A fun and enjoyable read, I don’t mind giving it to my boys!!!
