My daughter did not like to read, and giving a four-year-old a chapter book seemed ambitious even for a child who adored books. What I discovered is that my daughter did not like to read because I had been choosing for her the wrong stories. At four, she was ready for more ambitious reading, yet I ...             The Tomten and the Fox11 reviews Karl-Erik Forsslund Coward-McCann, Inc., 1965 book This is a wonderful story for children.

I wish I were a publisher All three Karlsson books by Astrid Lindgren are children classics, "cult" books. I can't belive you can only find them in English from used book sellers for $72, $249 and other ridiculous prices. I wonder if those children books publishers ever look at out-of-print books prices. Don't those prices give you some clue on what is in demand? I mean, really, guys - you have lots of immigrants ...             Ronia, the Robber's Daughter36 reviews Astrid Lindgren Puffin, 1985 My childhood book I wanted to buy this book for my children to read, because it was my favorite story when I was little.
