Alla ska sova (Swedish)
When the sky is pink and dusk settles over the treetops, it's time to sleep. Or? Join us on a magical walk in the Swedish summer evening, to the cowshed, to the lambs and to other small animals that would rather play than sleep. Only when dusk turns to night, everyone seems to rest, and falls asleep. Even lazy cat.Alla ska sova is Astrid Lindgren's classic lullaby, best known from the films about Bullerbyn. A beautiful show about slowly coming to peace. The pictures are created by Marit Törnqvist, who has worked with Astrid Lindgren's texts for 30 years. They are inspired by the Swedish nature, the summer light and the feeling of being a small part of a big universe.

Astrid Lindgren in Norway
The first to bring Astrid Lindgren's books abroad was the publisher Damm & Søn in Oslo, with their Norwegian edition of "Pippi Longstocking" already appearing in 1946. This marked the beginning of a long-standing relationship. Today, most of her books in Norway are published by Cappelen Damm, a publishing house formed through the merger of Cappelen and Damm. Astrid's book adaptations into films also became popular in Norway, as did her famous songs. One of Astrid Lindgren's favorite books was "Hunger" by the Norwegian author Knut Hamsun; she often mentioned it as one of her greatest reading experiences.
