About the author

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.

Den tredje och sista delen om Barnhans värld.

Elefanten Ellen dör till slut och Farbrornallen döljer svårligen sin förtjusning. Begravningar är nämligen det han uppskattar allra mest i livet. Bisamråttan blir också försiktigt glad eftersom de ryska begravningarna brukar vara riktigt festliga.

Mycket ska planeras och mitt i alltihop kan en ny figur påpassligt passa på att smälta in.

Inte ett så sorgligt slut som det kan verka.
