The Million Kroner Kindness Competition

Norwegian title: Snillionen

Cover illustration by Irene Marienborg

One perfectly ordinary day, Frank and Mom win the lottery. And then no days become ordinary again.Every one in the village is after the twenty-four million. And Mom makes it worse by promising money to whomever is the kindest.

Frank and Mom flee to southern Europe. For how long can they stick their heads in the sand? Who will win the competition? And can it really end up that Frank doesn't get a single krone?

The Million kroner kindness competition is a humorous story about how difficult it is to be incredibly rich – and at the same time a good person.
