T for Turbo

Elisabeth Moseng

Turbo the Mountain Fox is on summer vacation at the Finnbu mountain lodge, and today he has to refresh and repaint the red T markings along the path up to Djeveltunga. It's an easy task – he can see the peak from the cabin! But the weather changes quickly in the mountains, and when the fog comes, Turbo and his friends lose their way. Or is it the map that's wrong? Suddenly everything is unknown – and then they hear some scary sounds ... Fortunately, it all goes well in the end, and maybe Turbo has learned something along the way.

Two Little Knights and a Princess in Love

Bjørn F. Rørvik

Two little knights are in England to celebrate the Queen's centenary. Not because any of them want to, but because Rosebush and Bang are going on their annual trip, and the King has asked (more like ordered) them to bring Princess Begonia with them. Begonia really doesn't want to go to the centenary, but the King is desperate to keep her away from the crooner Snubbe Karlsson. Begonia is head over heels for him, and the King is not happy about it. How that became Rosebush and Bang's problem is a question neither of them can answer, but the mission is unchanged: They must bring Begonia on their annual trip, keep her happy and avoid any embarrassing scenes. It's a mission that's doomed to fail.

Because Grandpa can do magic with words and speak the language of wizards. "It’s important to find words that shine in the dark," says Grandpa. Because everyone needs words that open doors, and words that dare to ask for help. Words like hello, come in, join us, sorry. These are the bravest words we have. Gro Dahle is one of Norway’s most renowned and beloved picture book authors, with a unique gift for expressing painful and difficult themes in an intimate, poetic way.Go Away! is a powerful story about exclusion and bullying among the very youngest children and about the tools we can use to create inclusion, empathy, and understanding.
