Nan, Tarzan and the Detective Expedition

Moni Nilsson & Anna Fiske

Tarzan likes to play football, but he does not want to be part of a team. Because then he thinks he will miss out on other fun things. So on Mondays, when everyone else is at football practice, Tarzan is with Nan. Nan is more like a friend than a grandmother, even if she’s a bit embarrassing sometimes. Especially when she does magic. This particular Monday begins with a stomachache and a super-forbidden matchbox in Tarzan’s pocket, but turns into an exciting detective expedition.

This is the second part of a series in which we meet Nan and her grandchildren. Part three, Nan, Rose and the Family Expedition, is planned for spring 2024.
