Synopsis

Fanni's thread is purple. It winds through the house like a maze. Finally, the thread ends in Aunt Lilla's knitting basket. Here Fanni also finds a fine knitted sweater. It fits her perfectly. She wins the thread in a huge spanner and thinks that now Aunt Lilla can knit her a hat and a scarf.

Reviews

"A reader reported that her 5-year-old child suffers from high-functioning autism. This is the first time he has read a book in its entirety and read 5 titles at a time. Our editor felt sincerely happy. Thank you very much for your creativity and work. Somewhere in the world, there is a child who is happy because of reading your series. It is a very remarkable achievement." – (Note to the author from her Chinese publisher: Beijing Yutian Hanfeng Book Co., Ltd)
