The #1 New Family Tradition in North America
"Growing up in Denmark I have the most wonderful memories around the Nisse. I'm not the creator of this beautiful tradition, I'm just the one telling you this magical story, as generations has for 1000 of years."
- Author, Rikke M Liffiton
Did you know;
- that the Nisse is the same guy as the Gnome? And that he got the most magical tales and history behind him.
How Many Hearts did you find in The Christmas Nisse Book?
“Most beautiful of all
are the moments we share
the memories we create
when we love and we care”
About The Author
Rikke Melgaard Liffiton
Rikke was born and raised in Denmark but is now living in Canada with her Canadian husband and their two sons.
With an understanding of both Danish and North American Christmas traditions, she has married the tradition of the Danish Christmas Nisse to the North American Christmas celebrations to create a fairytale come true.
​
“Nærvær” is a Danish word that is very dear to Rikke. Translated, it means "being present in the moment". All small gestures of kindness and love can create memories that can be held in our hearts and in our thoughts.
​
Rikke notes that even though The Christmas Nisse has made some cultural changes traveling overseas to
North America, the thought behind The Christmas Nisse has remained the same; they are here to remind us to create special memories filled with Christmas Joy.
