Recensioner i media

'A beautifully illustrated book with plenty of text. Peter and Lotta prepare for Christmas in Victorian Sweden in the days before Father Christmas, when the Christmas Goat brought gifts. It's full of adventures. A great Christmas read for 4-8 year olds.'-- Education Otherwise for Homeschoolers'Evidence from my family and its visitors confirms that Elsa Beskow's Peter and Lotta stories somehow capture the imagination. The illustrations in these lovely hardback editions have something of the charm that Carl Larsson's watercolours have. For children I suspect these books have the old-fashioned feel and colour that a good Nordic 'heimat' film does for me as an adult. Children love them.'-- Martyn Rawson, Steiner Education'Elsa Beskow's beautiful illustrations give you a glimpse into Swedish life and their Christmas traditions. This story has slightly more text than the average picture book and is ideal for children who want a slightly longer story but still enjoy beautiful illustrations.-- Kaleidoscope Magazine
