The children from Bullerbü have almost non-stop fun. They skate on the small lake behind the Nordhof - where Lasse tumbles into an ice hole, but luckily gets out again. Lisa and Inga are supposed to go shopping, yeast and ginger, vinegar, a booklet of sewing needles and a ring of bratwurst from the best.This can take a whole day if you keep forgetting something!Translator: Karl Kurt Peters
Fakta
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.
