St. Lucia on Dec 13th 🕯

Lucia Morning in Sweden

"It is December 12th in Sweden. 

Snow is piling up outside the Svensson house. 

The three Svensson children are excited because this is their favorite time of the year....

Tomorrow is a special day. 

Do you know why? says Mama...."

"In the busy house of the Svennson family, everyone is getting ready for the Swedish holiday of Lucia Day, December 13. The book tells the story of Santa Lucia through the eyes of three children in modern-day Sweden. It describes their giddy activities, brought to life in colorful, full-page illustrations, and also provides sheet music, recipes, and sewing patterns for the costumes traditionally worn by children on this day, when many Swedish people celebrate the legacy of Lucia and the coming of the light with coffee, saffron buns, ginger snaps, and wonderful singing. One of the most beloved and celebrated traditions of the Swedish people, Lucia Day also signifies that the Christmas holiday is getting close. Although the book is aimed at the 5- to 10-year-old age group, many parents and grandparents may enjoy reading it to younger children." (Description on LT)
