Overview Sjokoladeskurken

There's chocolate in the bedside drawer – stolen chocolate! It's not easy for a chocolate thief to sleep at night. Imagine if someone saw what you were doing?

When there's a sudden knock on the window one night, our young hero is lured out into the darkness and ends up in the middle of what turns out to be a thiefs' gathering, where the scariest and strangest thiefs meet up – those who have done far worse things than stealing chocolate. But what is it they want with a simple chocolate thief?

The Chocolate Thief is a new picture book from Kaia Dahle Nyhus about having a secret, and then getting even more.

Reviews Sjokoladeskurken

Deilig, skummel, skremmende 03.10.2019

«Kaia Dahle Nyhus bryter velkjente mønster på høyst overraskende vis. Ingen moralsk pekefinger, ingen happy end. Rett og slett en åpen avslutning som får oss til å undres.

Men så er det illustrasjonene. Eksplosiv koloritt, non-figurative skikkelser, gøyale, skummelt-sjarmerende effekter i ansiktsuttrykk og gester. Jeg tror leserne vil fryde seg.»
