"Christmas a time to warm the hearts and souls of young and old and good and bad. Wait a minute did we say "bad"? Sven, Lena and Ole are off for a much needed vacation to the country no one wants. Situated between Canada and the United States lies the tiny nation called Snot Islands. The United States "does not" want them and Canada "does not" want them. The islands got their name from a clerical error. Someone a long time ago was told to record the name of this little nation. They heard the word "does not" and because it was said quickly and no one bothered to say "what did you say? " "Does not" was misunderstood to become "snot" and that is how the Snot Islands came to exist. As fate would have it our little island nation was destined to become a major player in this new technically advanced world of Christmas. A handful of strange and eccentric residents and a nation obsessed with booger's is about to start a brand new Christmas tradition. For the old at heart and the young of mind grab the family and curl up in front of the fireplace. Serve hot chocolate and eggnog to everyone. If you're Scandinavian and even if you are not a good helping of Lefse is always a great yuletide treat. Now pick up this book and start a new family tradition as old as the word itself. Read out loud to your family and loved ones of the world's greatest new Christmas icon "The Booger Fairy.""
