After accidentally being seen by a human, an Icelandic Yule Lad named Stekkjastaur finds he must rely on a young shepherd boy to keep his troll identity a secret.
New edition previously published under the title Legend of the Icelandic Yule Lads.
Even from a source as unlikely as a troll, a selfish act wrapped up in the Christmas spirit can grow into something wonderful.
One by one, the Yule Lads each take a break from his own mischief, and each one learns the happiness gained from gift-giving.
He learns that one of the greatest gifts you can receive is the joy in giving to someone else.
Stekkjastaur gives a gift just to ensure the child\'s silence, but the little boy\'s happiness makes Stekkjastaur happy as well.
