Memory Lane, 27 Jun 2007
By Mr. Geoffrey D. Rose - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Aunt Green, Aunt Brown and Aunt Lavender (Hardcover)
This book is a trip down memory lane for my wife who just happens to be Swedish. She first heard this story from her grandmother back in Sweden as a little girl. In the Swedish version her name is actually mentioned as it was one of the aunts. It doesn't appear in the english version. No matter it is still great and she love's it. The illustrations are fantastic. I know kids today prefer animated/graphic novels, but not for her. She has hunted high and low for this book, so it was a great thrill to be able to purchase this book for her.

Another Elsa Beskow winner!!, 7 Nov 2006
By Heidi - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Aunt Green, Aunt Brown and Aunt Lavender (Hardcover)
I love Elsa Beskow books. They are so refreshing. Beautifully illustrated, with a story that has a dramatic plot line, and of course, a happy ending. This sweet story is the kick off to the other Peter & Lotta stories. I highly recommend it.

great old book, 27 Jun 2007
By Virginia Price - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Aunt Green, Aunt Brown and Aunt Lavender (Hardcover)
I remember this book from my childhood. I think my Mom had a copy in Swedish or Danish and she would translate as she read it to us. Now I can read it myself in English and still think it's great. The colorful women are just as they should be. There is nothing more pleasing to a child than predictable nice stories with very pretty pictures. I can highly recommend it.
