Give the Gift of Reading this Christmas

Every 24 December, Icelanders give each other books. Then unwrap them with a tasty cup of hot chocolate. The tradition is known as Jólabókaflóð (Jolabokaflod) or 'Christmas book flood'.


One Icelandic proverb says, “it's better to be without shoes than be without a book” and I could not agree more.


It makes books feel extra-special when they're wrapped up as a present and given with love. And the Christmas holidays are the perfect time to snuggle in and enjoy new books.


The bestselling Operation Series from Helen C. Escott, published by Flanker Press, has been optioned by Rink Rat Productions for film and television.


Rink Rat Productions has produced high-quality programing for over 25 years including the critically acclaimed awarding winning feature film, Maudie.


The series is set in Newfoundland and Labrador and follows the careers of Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Sgt. Nicholas Myra and RCMP Corporal Gail McNaughton.


Pick it up for yourself or for a bookworm on your Christmas list.
