SUPER-SLEUTH HILMAR: MURDER IN THE HEN-YARD

Tore Aurstad / Carina Westberg

Funny and exciting animal-crime for children! Hilmar is an old cock-fighter, and wornout private detective. He owes the Raptor gang a lot of grain, and it's not safe for him in Birdietown. His old friend Mike comes to the rescue – with an assignment. Someone has killed Gregory the Rooster,and Hilmar agrees to investigate. But who could have killed the old rooster in cold blood? Could it be the young hens Agda and Magda? The fox? Maybe the pigs? Or perhaps the local bikers, The Outclaws, who live down by the pond? Spiro offers to help, but are an old cockerel and a sparrow any match for a bunch of hard-boiled crooks? The book is illustrated by Regine Toften Holst.

Victoria Vargmo and The Iron Troll

Alexander Løken

Take another trip into the universe of Edvard Frost! Victoria Vargmo has never felt at home in the mountain village where she grew up. She wants to go to the city – to go out into the world and experience life! When a young man from the Norwegian Nazi party and his mysterious German companion try to kidnap her to investigate the spirwit blood in her veins, things start to happen at last. Suddenly she finds herself on a train to Oslo – on her way to meet her legendary, vanished grandfather, Edvard Frost. He’s the only one who can protect her. Edvard Frost has met scary monsters and creatures before, but now a war is looming on the horizon. Victoria Vargmo is suddenly trapped in an adventure she never expected. Alexander Løken’s trilogy about Edvard Frost’s expeditions won him a Boksluker prize and several prestigious nominations. Here comes a new book from the same universe. Victoria Vargmo is Edvard’s grandchild and she’s just as tough as her grandfather. And that’s a good thing because autumn 1939 brings some totally new challenges.

ZOMBIELARS - BOOK 3

Gisle Halvorsen / Thomas Seeberg Torjussen / Nicolai Houm

What happens to those who are different when xenophobia is on the increase? The People Against Everything Foreign campaign is growing in strength, and the school principal, Torill, always says "birds of a feather should play together." It's not easy being a zombie, ninja or witch in Bekkebakken. But Lars and his gang are not the only strangers, there are others that choose to hide who and what they really are behind a facade. Principal Torill gives the twins Herman and Caroline some tablets to calm them down, and tells them to pull themselves together before anyone realizes they are half-trolls; Michael's parents are members of Life's Choice who pretend to be knocked out if they are hit – which is far safer than them being revealed as one of the undead. But when Lars is kidnapped and buried by PAEF, it's the final straw for the gang. They break into the PAEF headquarters and destroy the lists of strangers in Bekkebakken. One of the names they find on the list is Kurt Ødegårdsstuen – Lars's Dad. This is a graphic novel based on the popular TV series on Norway's children's channel NRK Super. ZombieLars - Book 3 is based on the first half of season 2.

Soccer without Borders

Peder Inge Knutsen Samdal

In Football Without Borders, the author expands geographically to cover the entire world of football, but he also dives into history, culture and religion. Why was it so important for South Korean Heung-min Son to score the penalty at the 2016 Olympics? Why did Cristiano Ronaldo get involved in the refugee crisis? What makes a Norwegian football coach want to undertake the job as the national team coach for the world's most closed-off country? What happens when US national team player Megan Rapinoe refuses to stand up during the performance of the American national anthem? And how big of a religion is soccer really? Samdal's curiosity about understanding the world through football truly rubs off on the reader. Informative and interesting, Samdal manages to touch on several major issues such as war, refugees, politics and love – using on the basis of his love for football. Peder Samdal has previously written the book Mario Balotelli Explains Europe.
