Translated by Elisabeth Kallick Dyssegaard.
Despite Grandma's warnings, young pig Molly (Molly Goes Shopping) keeps crashing into things on her bike. When she crashes into a driving instructor, he sees Molly's problem: she's staring at what she's trying to avoid, instead of looking ahead. Eriksson's colored-pencil drawings skillfully express Molly's emotions through her elastic-limbed body language and, particularly, through her eyes.
