Description
The Tomten is tired of porridge for breakfast so he starts stealing eggs from Henny's nest until she sees a goose swimming by with her goslings and Henny wants chicks of her own. So she and her friend Hedgie hide an acorn, then a strawberry, a mushroom and a potato in her nest. But that doesn't stop the Tomten from coming back every morning. Finally Hedgie himself hides in the nest and when the Tomten reaches in and comes out with a handful of prickles, he runs home and never comes back.
