About this Event

In Iceland on Christmas Eve, people give each other books and then curl up to read with a hot chocolate. This tradition of Jólabókaflóð (yolow-bloka-flowth) has inspired this wee coorie-in at the croft. Meet local writers including Chitra Ramaswamy, Vicky Allan, Pete Irvine and Julie Davidson. The cafe will be selling hot chocolate, mulled wine and marshmallows to toast at the firepit. Books will be on sale at exclusive event prices and gift wrap will be available for a donation to the croft. Family-friendly. Please bring any new or nearly new children's books you would like to donate.
