The Camping Trip: The Adventures of Pettson and Findus

(4) K-3 Translated by Tara Chace. In the series' fourth outing, getting-on-in-years farmer Pettson and his talking cat, Findus, intend to pitch their tent in the woods, but the hens sabotage their plan. As always, Nordqvist's detailed art is a thoughtful homage to the master-pet bond and to country life's languorous pleasures. This is also reflected in the somewhat sluggish storytelling, which rewards those who hang in there.
