500    "A Junior Library Guild selection."--Book jacket. 
520    Left in charge of her home and infant sibling when her 
       parents are called away at Christmastime, Bettina 
       disregards a family custom about leaving out rice pudding 
       for the nisse, who make their magic known when the baby 
       disappears. 
520    "Christmas has come, and with it a sparkling white 
       winterfrost over the countryside. But twelve-year-old 
       Bettina's parents have been called away unexpectedly, 
       leaving her in charge of the house, the farm, and baby 
       Pia. In all the confusion, Bettina's family neglects to 
       set out the traditional bowl of Christmas rice pudding for
       the tiny nisse who are rumored to look after the family 
       and their livestock. No one besides her grandfather ever 
       believed the nisse were real, so what harm could there be 
       in forgetting this silly custom? But when baby Pia 
       disappears during a nap, the magic of the nisse makes 
       itself known. To find her sister and set things right, 
       Bettina must venture into the miniature world of these 
       usually helpful, but sometimes mischievous folk. A 
       delightful winter adventure for lovers of the legendary 
       and miraculous. An ordinary Danish Christmas turns 
       extraordinary when a family overlooks an important 
       folkloric tradition."--|cProvided by publisher.
