Pettson and Findus - How Findus Came to Pettson (Nordqvist)

Findus has never been so cute!
Once upon a time, there was a cardboard box filled with green peas. At first. Then, once they were all eaten, something else went into the box: a little kitten, so small that it fit in the palm of a hand. A gift for Pettersson.
That is how fairy tales begin. And old Pettersson felt as if someone had pulled up the blinds on a summer morning and the warm sunlight was streaming in. The kitten cannot speak yet, and he doesn't wear trousers yet—but one day, while reading the newspaper, the moment arrives: "I want trousers like that, too," says Findus. What a wonderful kitten Pettersson has been given!
