I research global folk/fairy tales featuring bums and turn them into children's stories.
Our family celebrated Icelandic Xmases for a few years when the kids were little: wool socks, books and chocolate!

I'm in my greying years and like the stories, but the whole project was inspired by a group of Korean kindergartners to whom I read the second tale--A Tight Escape--my favourite read aloud moment.
