Format:Calendar
This is a lovely calendar given the beautiful artwork, however the month pages have extremely basic information (that could be easily done in the computer at home) and several months have editing errors. Some months start with the wrong date information, some months end with the wrong date information, some months have both problems. The case of December is the worst as it starts wrong and finishes in 30th December (where has the 31st gone?!?), also December ends on the cover page giving no space for notes to be added as a remark before exchanging calendars. There's no mini previous and next month chart at the bottom or a paper pocket for little information as seen in other calendars of the same price. This calendar is a lovely idea, however, very poorly executed. We were very disappointed with it. We have written a complaint to the publishers and are awaiting for an answer.

Swedish nostalgia 28 Jan 2011
By Sigrid
Format:Calendar
I was amazed to find this calendar on Amazon. Elsa Beskow was one of the most popular writers and illustrators of Swedish children's books and her books are classics. I remember them fondly from my childhood and I read them to my son ,now 21. The calendar is beautifully produced!

Poor Design 20 May 2012
Format:Calendar
The illustrations in this calendar are lovely, no fault there. However the design and layout suggest a very cheap calendar. There are no holidays of any sort marked on there, such as UK bank holidays. The week begins on Monday rather than Sunday which throws us a little. The last page for December is the card of the back of the calendar, there is no separate page. Overall it's a pretty calendar but it's not the most user friendly or practical.
