LEONA IN RAT TROUBLE

Norwegian title: Min første leseløve - Leona 1: Leona i rottetrøbbel

Illustrated by Cathrine Sandmæl

Leona in rat trouble is the first book in a series perfect for all children looking for their inner rascal! Leona does with the strangest things and always ends up in trouble. She's driven in a way all children aspire to be – a combination of Pippi and Roald Dahl's Matilda. Beside Leona on her adventures is her cautious sidekick, Felix, who serves as Leona's voice of reason – but who she always ignores. In this first book, Leona finds a rat and naturally wants to capture it and bring it to school, because they have swimming that day and Leona wants the rat to see how good she has become at swimming. To her surprise the rat escapes, which means guaranteed trouble. And it doesn't help that her teacher is already a very strict and angry type.

Join Leona on a new adventure for 6 to 9 year olds that love a wild and funny story. Anneli Klepp, an experienced easy-readers author, has written this joyful series. It is illustrated by the extremely talented Cathrine Sandmæl who we remember from Dad Jokes. Together, they have managed to create a totally new world that children will love.
