Known For
Karlsson on the Roof
Karlsson's grandmother is the world's best racing driver and Karlsson is not so bad either. Kaxige Kirre challenges Karlsson in a box car race. Now it is up to Karlsson and Lillebror to build a really fast car so that they can give Kirre what he can stand. Little brother has made a kite at school that he wants to test fly with Bosse. Just this day, it blows a lot so the dragon wears itself out and sticks out into the sky. Shortly afterwards, Karlsson is greeted by a wild creature that frightens him. What kind of scary character is that? When Mrs. Olsson's parrot escapes from her cage, it's good to have a friend who can fly. Especially when the one who finds the bird can get a hundred kroner in hit salary?
