Reviews

"It's one of those completely ordinary days, where you don't have a lot of plans, where suddenly everything ends up being very eventful. The book shows that you do not have to travel to an exotic place to experience a lot. Gorgeous story with the loveliest drawings in delicious colours about the charming and adventurous girl, Berta." – (Lektørudtalelse (Library review)
