Tor the Bear Celebrates Christmas Lin-Marita Sandvik

Tor the Bear is a little teddy bear with a huge heart, who loves new adventures, carrots and singing. He lives with his human in the Western part of Norway, close to fjords and mountains.

Several of his adventures are turned into children´s books, with beautiful photos and around 1000 words. Each book contains a song made by him during the course of the story.

In the stories he bakes, grows vegetables, fishes, travels, plays, celebrates Christmas, goes skiing and hangs out with friends. He is allowed to try new things and to make his own mistakes. Always with loving guidance from his human, who offers creative answers and explanations to life and living.

In this book you get to see how Tor the Bear and his friends celebrate Christmas, and thereby a glimpse of Christmas traditions in the Western part of Norway. From the morning when he finds the Advent calendar to the night when he and his friends sing "The Teddy Bears´ New Year Song". You get to see lovely photos of baking, a Christmas tree, gifts, snow and skiing, and the traditional food pinnekjott (salted, dried and steam cooked lamb ribs) as well as the tradition of playing New Year´s goat.

And then there is the fireworks. You´ll love it.
