Through simple and expressive illustrations, these endearing stories, extremely popular with the Sweden audiences, depict the emotional richness of overcoming life’s many obstacles in a modern world. about the author
Born in 1968. A writer and illustrator of children's books, including the Vem?/Who? and Brokiga series. Since graduating from the Konstfack University College of Arts, Crafts and Design in 1992, she has become one of Sweden's most well-known illustrators. Her style is simple, minimalistic, yet expressive, she is especially renowned for her work in fashion, children's books, and unique portraits.   “For as long as I remember, I have been drawing and making up stories. /.../ I have kept quite a few of my earliest efforts, and in my recent work I see a return to my childhood sketches. Isn’t Teddy and his friend a bit like something a child would draw? /.../ I believe my stories have been greatly influenced by my own childhood, and by the times in which I were a child. But I also have the ambition to bring our own age, the ever-present Now in which we find ourselves, into my work.”
