4.5⭐️ This is a cozy picture book for kids about giving books on Christmas Eve and spending the night reading. This audiobook was well done with music and sound effects and just made what‘s already a lovely book a magical delight. There is an Icelandic tradition called johodkflood and this is a more international version of that tradition. This is a tradition that would be lovely to see families pass on or start as a new tradition for themselves.

For my final #adventrecommends I choose this beautiful picture book that explains the Iceland tradition of Jolabokaflod. I loved the illustrations and information, such a neat tradition that I wished I knew about years ago. Thanks for hosting @emilyrose_x it‘s been fun looking back at my reads for the year.
