Around the World in 80 Words

Helene Uri

The Norwegian language contains words from all over the world! Some have travelled only a short distance, crossing the border from Sweden or heading north from Germany. Others have been on much longer journeys, all the way from South America, Africa or Asia. This is a book about the words that have settled in Norway, becoming part of our language. Children will find words they know laid out on beautifully illustrated maps, they’ll go on journeys by land and sea, and they’ll learn that our language makes the world both smaller and richer. A gorgeous, colourful book that you’ll want to keep on display in the children’s room.

The family spends a lot of time looking for a new place – they’d rather not move too far. And one day they find the perfect flat! When they have to pack all their stuff, there are loads of boxes and strange, empty rooms. Karsten and Petra visit the new flat, where they look at their new room and the new back garden. Maybe it won’t be so bad after all! The popular book series about Karsten and Petra started in 1991 and brand-new stories about the two good friends continue to come. The topics in the series revolve around friendship and play, and they are nice short stories, whose themes will resonate with all children of kindergarten age. In recent years, a lot of children have got to know Karsten and Petra and their stuffed toys through the films and TV series about them.
