Synopsis

‘WHEN I GROW UP, I WANT TO BE: A ninja fighting space worms in outer space.’

This is how Karla writes in her Fantalastic Diary. Find out all about her thoughts as she talks about her family and friends, the funniest and worst things she's ever experienced - and shares secrets she's never told anyone before.

The book is part of the Fantalastic Diaries series, based on the animated series, Karla's Fantalastic Class, known from Danish National Television. Each diary is a fun and faithful reflection of the character who filled it, and both fans of the animated series and new readers can join in. There are eight of them, as well as My Fantalastic Diary which the children can fill out themselves.

The books are written and illustrated by Tor Fruergaard and Michael Hegner, who are also behind the animation series.
