Rate this book
Долгожданная книжка-картонка для самых младших любителей творчества Свена Нурдквиста!

Кот Финдус спрятал четыре секрета, старик Петсон секреты ищет, а найдя, понимает, для чего именно они были спрятаны. Интрига немудреная, но симпатичная, и все приметы мира Финдуса и Петсона на месте: болтливые куры, деловитые мюклы, кот-егоза, который вытворяет бог знает что, и всякие странные предметы, выдуманные щедрой фантазией Свена Нурдквиста. К примеру, механизм для покраски куриных гребешков в красный цвет или лопатно-грабельное дерево!

Sven Nordqvist (born 30 April 1946) is a Swedish writer and illustrator of children's books. He is best known for his series Pettson and Findus, about an old farmer, Pettson, and his talented cat, Findus.

Nordqvist was born in Helsingborg and grew up in Halmstad, Sweden. He originally wanted to be an illustrator but was rejected by several art schools. Instead he studied architecture at Lund Institute of Technology, and worked for a time there as a lecturer in architecture. At the same time he continued to look for work as an illustrator working on advertisements, posters and picture books. In 1983 he won first prize in a children's book competition and since then has worked exclusively as an author and illustrator of children's books.

He is married and has two grown sons.

During his career, he has been given awards in both Sweden and Germany. His Pettson and Findus books are especially popular in Germany, where the characters are known as Pettersson and Findus. In Danish they are called Peddersen and Findus. In Finnish they are called Pesonen and Viiru. And in English, Festus and Mercury, though English translations of the books exist with the original names kept.

In 2007 he won the literary award Augustpriset in the children's books category, for his book Var är min syster? ("Where is my sister?"). In 1992 he won the Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis

Lättillgänglig berättelse för de minsta barnen. Mer text än en pekbok, men en enkel berättelse som barnen lätt kan hänga med i och bjuds in att själv leta efter saker i bilderna.

I love to read children's books to learn a new language. Pettson & Findus is my absolute fave when it comes to Swedish books and I recommend them to everyone interested in short, cute, and beautifully drawn books.

Książeczka wprowadzająca w świat starszego pana i jego kota - dla młodszych czytelników, sztywnostronnicowa. Pomysłowy Findus ukrywa w różnych miejscach przedmioty, z których Pettson ma przyrządzić potrawę.
