Thank you for this @katharsisdrill as seeing the description I saw that in the English version of Christian Anderson, which I grew up on as child , "the Goblin at the grocers" was actually translated to 'goblin' from 'nisse' I love that. Now I'm going to end up down a rabbit hole in my old childhood books. It's just getting cloudy now and we've a promise of snow so it's the perfect time to go up in the attics and have a good rummage about and get my old books out...I'm feeling an 'anderson' series of drawings coming on now :)
I love the tangients and shared creativity of Hive sometimes.
Me too...Hive/Steemit really is a place where I have learned and talked and found ideas.
As for the nisse, if you can get your hands on it I would recommend the beautiful children's book, which in English is called The Wonderful Adventures of Nils. It is written by the Swedish author, Selma Lagerlöf. It features a Nisse (or as they also call them in Sweden - tomte).
