I’ve never read it but now I kind of want to.

I don’t know what she was thinking…a 5-year-old should not hear this book read aloud. I still have nightmares about it. I’ve considered buying the book many times, but I have a feeling it would have to live in the freezer. You know – where scary things move slower and you have time to run away.

Damned Swedish gnome creeping around the farm talking to animals in a language only they could understand while everyone was asleep. Of course, I now own the book. Interesting that they lightened the cover (http://www.amazon.com/Tomten-Astrid-Lindgren/dp/0698115910), it isn’t as dark as it used to be (http://steinerbooks.org/detail.html?id=0863151531).
