The Summer Gift
Children's Books2017 · 88 pp · Age 6 - 12

The Summer Gift

Sidsel Jøranlid

A summery, sweet and girly easy reader from the author behind Bettina brudepike. Bettina is dreading four deathly boring weeks at the cabin without any friends. But then she meets Kristine, and suddenly summer seems to be turning out just fine! Kristine even gives Bettina a nice summer gift. Perhaps it it's even too nice. Because what will Bettina give Christine? A pretty shell won't do. And where did Kristine really get the gift from? Sidsel Jøranlid is entirely “in-tune” with easy readers. She knows which topics are important and interesting for girls in elementary school. And Monia Nilsen's illustrations make us wish that we were little girls again – and that it will be summer soon.

Bettina and the Sleep Over

Sidsel Jøranlid

Bettina is invited to a sleepover with Anna and their friends, so they can finish the picture for the school play. But Bettina doesn't really want to. She doesn't like sleeping over at other people's houses, where nothing is like at home. But she can't say that, because she doesn't want the others to think she is a whimp. Maybe she can just ask her mom to pick her up in the evening? But then she loses track of time, and suddenly it's bedtime and Bettina HAS to spend the night. Sidsel Jøranlid knows how schoolchildren feel and how she should write in a way that engages them. And with Monia Nilsen's illustrations, the stories about Bettina come to life.
