Jump, Grandad!
Norwegian title: Løveunge - Hopp, morfar!
Grandad is picking Lea up from school today, but they have to hurry because Lea has ballet class! When the time comes for Grandad to help Lea get changed, they get a suprise. None of Lea's pretty dance clothes are to be found in Grandad's bag, and Lea doesn't feel like dancing at all anymore. If only Grandad could find some way to persuade her.
A sweet and familiar tale of what happens when a grandfather joins his granddaughter's dance class.
'Tiril Valeur amuses both children and adults with her vivid illustrations and colourful style. A terrific book for a child learning to read. [...] The central characters are great fun and the story both simple enough and good enough to sustain the enthusiasm for reading in the youngest children.'Fædrelandsvennen
