The Troll of Trafalgar Square tells the story of Anfred, a little lost Norwegian troll. Anfred was fast asleep in his favourite spruce tree which was chosen to be sent as a gift. He wakes up to find that he has been transported all the way to London Surrounded by the big grey lions in Trafalgar Square, with millions of strangers, cars and bright lights, (not to mention pigeons everywhere), Anfred is afraid. Luckily for him he meets Hudson, a young boy with a nose for adventure and a kind heart.

Join Hudson and Anfred on their Christmas Eve journey Will Anfred ever find his way home? Are there trolls living in Trafalgar Square?
