Mormor Moves In

32 pp. | Orca | September, 2004 | Trade ISBN 1-55143-291-9 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Louise-Andrée Laliberté. When five-year-old Astrid's morfar (grandfather) dies in Sweden, her mormor (grandmother) moves in with Astrid's family. Mormor's traditional ways cause problems for Astrid, but when Mormor finds a replacement for Astrid's lost teddy bear, grandmother and granddaughter reach a new understanding. The text is overly long, but the soft illustrations lend comfort to this story about loss and love.
