Do You Want to Be My Pony?

Ebba Forslind & Hanna Klinthage

Do you want to be my pony? A small, sweet, and brown.

With a beautiful spot on the forehead and a mane as soft as down.

And you can be called Lilly or Flower or Boot, in any case, you’ll be indescribably cute.

An adventure starts in the play between a young sibling and an older one. Deep in the forest, they build a hut. They will live there. Eat blueberries and sing songs and lie in the moss. But all around them dangers lurk like volcanoes, fires, and a wolf… In verse and magnificently illustrated landscapes, Ebba Forslind and Hanna Klinthage have created a loving tribute to siblings, play, and imagination.
