Three Swedish sisters star in these amiable new editions. In Strawberries, the triplets pick berries and use the proceeds to help a needy family. In Cake, they ruin Mother's birthday cake and learn to focus on the task at hand. Both writing and artwork are sometimes stiff and dated, but the enterprising, identical girls certainly have their fans. Review covers these titles: Flicka, Ricka, Dicka and the Strawberries and Flicka, Ricka, Dicka Bake a Cake.
