Emil's antics 2

Do you want me to tell you more mischief that Emil did? You may want to know about the exciting adventures he had on that fair day on Hultsfred Plain when he went to visit Alfred and have a great time. Or you don't want to miss what happened the day Emil spilled the blood sausage bread filling on top of his father…. Emil is 5 years old, his pranks are always funny and his witticisms have revolutionized the whole town. He is witty, cheerful, affectionate and although his intentions are always good, sometimes he ends up getting into a lot of trouble. He lives on a farm and is one of Astrid Lindgren's most beloved characters because he is inspired by the stories and anecdotes that his father Samuel told him, from when he was a child. With color illustrations by Björn Berg, this book, the second in a 6-volume series, is perfect for early readers thanks to its large, simple typeface, and for family reading. We all want a better world, to live in harmony and to become the best possibility of ourselves. But how to do it and where to start? Astrid Lindgren was convinced that you have to start from scratch. Since childhood. Girls and boys will be happier and smarter if they live like Emil, Astrid's character: playing. Like most children, Emil learns through play: sometimes his antics create problems and solving them intelligently and learning that things don't always go as planned is part of the adventure of growing up. This year we celebrate the 60th anniversary of its publication. Emil's Antics is one of Astrid Lindgren's most beloved series, it narrates the adventures of a 5-year-old boy. Ideal for family reading.
