Master Detective: A Kalle Blomkvist Mystery
Kalle Blomkvist is only thirteen years old, but already a very skilful detective. He lives in a small idyllic town together with Anders and Eva-Lotta. Together they call themselves ‘The White Rose’ and fight merry battles against ‘The Red Rose’, and everything is just as wonderful as it should be when you’re on your summer break from school. Then something happens that interrupts the games and throws the master detective and his friends right into the middle of a perilous adventure.Translator: Susan Beard

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.
