About This Item
Helsinki: Otava, 1999. 1st English Edition Printing Unknown. Hardcover. As New/No Jacket Issued. Pekka Vuori. CONDITION: UNREAD, but not quite perfect, 1999 Otava (Helsinki) large hardcover (no DJ issued), first English edition. Problem: There is an inscription (well hidden) from an "Uncle" who bought this book in a bookstore in Helsinki in 2002. That's all that is wrong with this book. The illustrations are so colorful and interesting - also by the Author. Decorated end pages. CONTENT: The Yuletide realm of Santa Claus is in a secret place in Lapland known as Korvatunturi. There, in the gleam of the Aurora Borealis, the elves attend school, bathe in the sauna, drive their reindeer through the drifted snow, and of course welcome letters from children throughout the world. And they're busy in summer, too, for at Korvatunturi every season brings more than enough to do. Pekka Vuori has gained distinction both at home and abroad as an eminent Finnish artists. His handsomely illustrated account of the seasonal cycle in Santa's world will delight the entire family.
