Ingrid Vang Nyman.
A collection of comics originally published in a children's magazine in Sweden in the 1950s are here translated and published in book form in the United States for the first time. Children familiar with the novels will recognize the genesis of stories they know well. The plots are slight, but the humor and art are strong and childlike.
