Milla Gets to Decide
Children's Books2016 · 64 pp · Age 6 - 9

Milla Gets to Decide

Selma Lønning Aarø

Milla and her little brother Magnus have nagged and begged Mummy and Daddy so much that they are at last allowed to decide for themselves. Not only for themselves but also for Mummy and Daddy! They have to look after the domestic budget and manage the house. What are they going to eat? What time will they go to bed and get up? What is allowed and what is not? In short, they have to decide about everything. Surely it will be paradise on Earth? Selma Lønning Aarø and illustrator Tiril Valeur have produced a charm-bomb of a book, a documentary of the modern family, with apt and recognisable situations which seldom turn out as planned.

The Stockholm Nobel-Mystery

Ingeborg Dybvig

Yes. It was he. The man with the ring. None of us let him out of our sight. "What do we do now?" I looked at Simon. Just at that moment the man got up, put on his jacket and gathered his shopping bags. "Dang! He is leaving! What do we do?" I had promised both Englund and Dad that I would not play detective. "The question is, do we follow him or should we just let him go again?" said Simon. I looked at him. Could we maybe call for help? The man was already moving away from us. We did not have time. There was no helping it. I nodded to Simon. Without words, we followed him towards the exit. Claras father is taking pictures of the Norwegian Nobel Prize winner, and Clara get to go with him to Stockholm. Then the winner is struck down, and the Nobel-medal is stolen. Clara is under strict instructions not to play detective again, but that is a promise that is close to impossible to keep when the mysterious man with the ring keep turning up again and again. This is the third book in the Clara-Mysteries series.

The Wafflefish

Bjørn F. Rørvik

Fox and Piglet have borrowed a book about fish, with pictures ofall sorts of fish and sea creatures. Some of the fish look very funny, for example the Gurglefish. Others look very nasty to eat, suchas the Potatomouth, which is U.N.O.P – Unusually Nasty On Pizza. But there are also some which look remarkably good, and most tempting of all is the Wafflefish.Piglet fancies a wafflefish for dinner. So the two friends go on a fishing trip – but there may be more than wafflefish lurking in the deep.The Wafflefish (Vaffelfisken) is the twelfth book about Fox and Piglet. Here again Rørvik and Dybvig are in top form, as they have been right from their very first book, twenty years ago. 'The Wafflefish is good storytelling inspired by adventure, with funny animals given human attributes and weaknesses. This is a book that surprises, that we laugh at and grow fond of. In short: Quality fun for little ones.'DAGBLADET 'A fresh and fanciful fishy story which will delight readers of all ages.'BYAVISA FREDRIKSTAD
