Book Synopsis The Nisse Book by : Albert Jørgensen
Book excerpt: A delightful children's book about a Danish farm family and the Nisse that brings them luck and takes good care of them. Nisser are small invisible people of Danish (and Norwegian) folktales, known for their hard work and iconic red hats. However, if they don't receive their yearly wage of a bowl of Christmas porridge, they become very angry and play tricks on their human families. This collection of charming stories by Albert Jørgensen was first published in Danish as "Nissebogen" in 1935. The text of this English translation by Anne Ipsen is faithful to the original and includes the numerous original ink drawings by Louis Moe, famous for his imaginative illustrations of many classical Christmas books for children.
