Loranga

A hilarious, darkly comic graphic retelling of Shakespeare’s Hamlet in radically condensed prose by legendary Swedish children’s author Barbro Lindgren and illustrator Anna Höglund. Look Hamlet. Hamlet not happy. Hamlet’s mommy dumb. Hamlet’s daddy dead. So begins this wonderfully strange, dark, and hilarious picture book version of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedy boiled down to its smallest possible size: 100 words, give or take, and fifteen etchings that look like the lovechild of Beatrix Potter and Edward Gorey. In our despondent antihero, a lop-eared bunny Hamlet with handbag in tow, is somehow embodied all the tremendous pathos of Shakespeare’s Danish Prince. And in legendary Swedish children’s author Barbro Lindgren’s pithy prose resides the poetry of the original, reworked for the era of memes and short attention spans. Bold and brilliant, irreverent and humane, Look Hamlet is the perfect irreverent gift for Shakespeare readers of all ages. As the Bard himself wrote: “brevity is the soul of wit.”

I Korken flyger väntar Barnhans och hans vänner med spänning på att Korken ska komma. Under tiden ägnar sig Farbrornallen åt släktforskning, Bisamråttan skriver på en dikt och Barnhans hittar en Pricknalle som blir allas kelgris. Och alla undrar de på vilket sätt Korken ska dyka upp. Flygande, flytande eller hoppande? En underbar bok med många bottnar. Eva Erikssons ljuvliga bilder - och de är många! - bidrar i högsta grad till helhetsintrycket.

The Wild Baby Goes to Sea

Max takes Teddy, Dog and all his toys on a wagon ride but he's in for a big surprise! This charming little book is full of drama, fun and humour. Max is an independent little character, full of energy and ideas. Young readers will love his everyday play and his friendship with Dog. This is a wonderful first book for toddlers. The author is perfectly attuned to play world of children and the illustrator captures all the delight and frustration of Max's attempts to get through the house and out into the garden without losing any of the toys loaded into his wagon. Dog is there to help but can he be trusted? Who took the cookie? Barbro Lindgren's simple, but engaging text is accompanied by witty illustrations from her long-time collaborator, Eva Eriksson.
