Reviews
'The charming fable was published in Sweden in 1930, and its vintage feel is positively refreshing.' - Kirkus Reviews 'This charming little fairytale with a true vintage feel ... A lovely little book, with simple illustrations, a combination of drawing and watercolors. Perhaps a book you'll never grow out of.' - Littlescandinavian.com 'The story is enchanting and Beskow's illustrations are gorgeous.' - smilinglikesunshine blog 'This is a sweet little story with simple, but lovely illustrations. The themes of independence, triumphing over adversity, and keeping one's cool in the face of disaster are great for shared storytime. The fairytale aspects of the setting will delight children who want to believe in gnomes and little spirits.' - Playing by the Book, UK book blogger 'Uses simple, yet quirky illustrations and words to best effect, this story is one most children will identify with because it is all about three children's good intentions turning unintentionally into mayhem.' -Early Years Educator 'Elsa Beskow's illustrations are as wonderful as always.
