Leona in Prize Trouble

Anneli Klepp

Leona comes up with the weirdest ideas and always ends up in trouble. She’s a mixture of Pippi Longstocking and Roald Dahl’s Matilda, with an oomph that would make her the envy of any child. In Book 2, her class takes a trip to the forest. Their teacher is in a really bad, mood but Leona has an idea about how to cheer him up. Everybody likes prizes – especially teachers! What luck that Leona has brought along plenty of things in her school bag that she can now put to good use. But will burnt sausages, muddy water, a jar of hare poo and pupils falling from the trees make the teacher any happier? It’s a nice thought, but Leona ends up in prize trouble. The experienced easy-reading author Anneli Klepp is the writer behind this fun series. She and illustrator Cathrine Sandmæl have managed to create a whole new universe that children will love getting to know.

King of the Forest

Line Halsnes

In this book you find everything you ever wanted to know about the moose! You probably know that the moose is known as the King of the Forest. But did you know that elks shut their eyes if you scratch them behind the ears, that their coats smell of horse and that they’re actually pretty easy to tame? In King of the Forest, you can not only read about how moose live and what they eat, but also about what moose milk tastes like and why the mooses’ stomach produces 400 litres of gas per day. You can even learn how to call a moose. Author and illustrator Line Halsnes has met Norwegian, Swedish and Russian moose. She has dived into all the available books about moose, spoken to moose researchers and other experts – and she has travelled deep into Russia to visit a proper moose farm. In this colourful, playful book, she shares her knowledge and her top moose tips with you.

Close up: Insects and bugs!

Jannicke Wiik-Nielsen / Dag O. Hessen / Ole Mathismoen

Did you ever look a spider in the eye? Or check out the trunk of a mosquito? Or discovered the amazing structure of a butterfly wing, or seen the powerful jaws of a ladybug? Get a look at insects, closer than ever before, through pictures that will take your breath away. Scientist Jannicke Wiik-Nielsen uses a microscope to take these highly original pictures. She has won awards for her pictures, and they have been part of international exhibitions. She has written the informative texts in cooperation with renowned writers Ole Mathismoen and Dag O. Hessen, authors of a number of books for both children and adults about nature and science. The texts are written for children, but this is just as much a coffee table book that the entire family will enjoy. As well as the fascinating pictures, there are drawings of the insects they way we are used to see them. This is a book full of facts about insects and bugs, taking the curiosity of children seriously.
