Lotta is moving

Lotta is in a bad mood

Lotta wakes up in a truly foul mood today. And then her mom comes along and wants her to put on that scratchy sweater. That is really going too far! Furiously, she cuts a hole in the sweater and decides to move out of the house. Not too far, just to Aunt Berg’s place next door. Naturally, she wants to see how sad everyone will be now that Lotta is gone. But perhaps living without Mom and Dad isn't quite as nice after all…

In this picture book for children ages 4 and up, Astrid Lindgren charmingly describes little Lotta’s moods. From anger and determination to insight and the longing for family closeness: Astrid Lindgren understands the world of children’s emotions like no other. The atmospheric illustrations by Cecilia Heikkilä make this picture book a delightful read-aloud for the whole family.
