Barbro Lindgren och Eva Eriksson har i Max-böckerna skapat dramatik för föräldrar och barn i pekboksåldern. Max-böckerna har blivit moderna klassiker och nu kommer de i ny design.
Barbro Enskog was born in Bromma, Stockholm. She graduated from art school in 1958 and has been writing books for publication since 1965. Her style has exerted a major influence on Swedish children's literature. Located between realism and surrealism, her works are humorous and imaginative, and her books for children treat important issues to be taken seriously and treated for children. Early in her career Barbro Lindgren won the 1973 Astrid Lindgren Prize, an annual Swedish literary award distinct from the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award. The once-in-a-lifetime award established on Astrid Lindgren's 60th birthday honours good writing for children or youth. Barbro Lindgren's long-time collaborator, the illustrator Eva Eriksson (born 1949), won the Prize in 2001.
I remembered the author's books ffrom my childhood, but cannot say that this one impressed me.it is rather boring and there is no point to the ending. a child does not want to wear the diaper, pees on the floor, the mom is upset and goes gets another diaper?
