Ellen Karlsson & Lisen Adbåge
These board books are great for the youngest, with a lot of recognition and laughter for both children and their adults.
In the latest two books, Roj has started preschool and the days are full ofactivities. Usually, it starts with an exciting sprint to preschool. After that, there is singing, eating, resting and playing before it’s time to go home. Often there is something to buy from the shop on the way home. That’s an adventure too!
With humorous illustrations and few words, the life of little Roj and his dad is tenderly depicted. There is much to recognize and laugh about in the picture books about Roj. In durable, bite-proof cardboard for everyone who loves Barbro Lindgren’s Max books. Classics in the making with on-point text by August Prize winner Ellen Karlsson and colorful innovative illustrations by Lisen Adbåge, who received the Elsa Beskow plaque in 2018.
