Immer dieser Michel (German)
Michel, five years old and strong as a little ox, lives on the Katthult farm in Lönneberga, that's a village in Småland in southern Sweden. With his round blue eyes and light woolly hair you could almost mistake him for an angel - if he's asleep, but when he's not asleep he has more nonsense on his mind than any other boy in all of Lönneberga, or all of Småland, or all of Sweden, or maybe even the whole world!The complete edition contains the individual volumes "Michel in the soup bowl", "Michel must make more men" and "Michel puts the world in order".Translator: Karl Kurt Peters

Fact
Astrid Lindgren in Germany
In 1949, the young German publisher Friedrich Oetinger was in Stockholm to meet the author Gunnar Myrdal. In a bookstore, he happened to hear about Pippi Langstrumpf. The rest is history – he requested a meeting with Astrid Lindgren and obtained a German option for the Pippi trilogy. Verlag Friedrich Oetinger in Hamburg still publishes all of Astrid Lindgren's children's books, and her great popularity in Germany remains intact. The film adaptations of her books were, in several cases, German co-productions, and they are still shown on German TV, especially around Christmas. Several of Astrid Lindgren's songs are very well known in their German translations, such as "Hey Pippi Langstrumpf!".
