Garmann's Street

Norwegian title: Garmanns gate

The first book about Garmann, Garmanns Sommer, won both hearts and awards, such as the BolognaRagazzi Award, the first book from the Nordic countries to do so.

Garmann has now started at school and the world seems even more unsafe. ‘Are you a wimp? Light it!’ says the horrible Rolf to Garmann. The grass fire at the stamp man’s house is put out and Garmann realises that friendships are made when you least expect it. *Beautifully illustrated using the same techniques as inGarmann’s Summer.

‘A work of art in itself … Now [Stian Hole] is ready with a new book about Garmann, and it has become just as great as the first one.’NRK‘Still world class … So consistent it is time to start talking about a Hole universe of its own.’Bergens Tidende
