LÄR KÄNNA EN FÖRFATTARE SOM GENOM SITT LIVSVERK BLIVIT IKONISK FÖR SIN TID

En del människor har levt liv som är värda att berätta om - det kan exempelvis vara designers, konstnärer, forskare, författare eller äventyrare. De har blivit berömda för sina fantastiska bedrifter, men allt började med att de var barn som hade stora drömmar.

Redan när Astrid var liten tyckte hon att berättelser var det bästa som fanns. Under sin uppväxt hade hon nära till naturen - hon gjorde upptäcktsfärder i skogen, lekte med sina syskon och hittade på en massa rackartyg. Astrids egen barndom var en inspirationskälla till busiga Pippi Långstrump, som är fri, tänker själv och alltid är redo att ha roligt!

Genom otaliga älskade berättelser som illustrerats och filmatiserats världen över, känner vi henne som vår mest folkkära svenska barnboksförfattare. Här möter vi Astrid Lindgren som brann för berättandet och fantasin och kom att inspirera barn i generationer med sina unika, knasiga och handlingskraftiga karaktärer.

 

 

Små människor, stora drömmar är den oemotståndliga bästsäljarserien för barn mellan 3-9 år. Varje bok är unikt illustrerad om inspirerande kreatörer, forskare, aktivister och andra förebilder.
