The cold is other people

Cornelius Jakhelln

When he was young, from 1994 to 1997, Cornelius wrote poems. The power and strength of these poems are unmistakably similar to the author's voice today. This is a raw and almost unpolished poetry collection about being young, about feeling like an outsider and searching for an identity in ever more extreme ideas and surroundings.

Friendship is put to several tests in the competition to be best. But most of all the summer is full of magic – Maradona's magic! Game on! This is the setting for a summer of passion and adventure.

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.
