Detective Gordon—a mystery-solving toad who loves cake—has his very first case. Someone’s stealing nuts from the forest, and it’s up to Detective Gordon to catch the thief! Unfortunately, solving this crime means standing in the snow and waiting for a long time... If only he had an assistant—someone small, fast, and clever—to help solve this terrible case. Then Detective Gordon would be able to go back to doing what he’s best at: thinking, eating cakes, drinking tea, and stamping important papers. A perfect first chapter book for children aged five and up by one of Sweden’s top children’s writers. This much-loved junior fiction series is illustrated in full color throughout and packed full of character and humor.

A warm and funny story from Detective Gordonâ??s forest about doing the right thingâ??and eating little cakes
"The whole world is full of dead things," said Esther. "In every bush there is a bird, a butterfly, a mouse. Someone must be kind and look after them. Someone must make a sacrifice and see that all these things are buried." "Who must?" I asked. "We must," she said. Esther was very brave. I was little and scared. One summer’s day we started a business called Funerals Ltd., to help all the poor dead animals in the world. Esther did the digging, I wrote the poems, and Esther’s little brother, Puttie, cried.
"One summer's day we started a business called Funerals Ltd., to help all the poor dead animals in the world. Esther did the digging, I wrote the poems, and Esther's little brother, Puttie, cried."

Is it possible they do exist? Taking Gordon's advice about how everyone thinks differently, she finds a way to communicate with the giant creatures--perhaps not so terrifying after all.The book leaves readers with a memorable Gordon message: Everyone thinks differently, strangers are welcome, cakes for everybody This final installment in the award-winning Detective Gordon series is a multi-layered philosophical story about good detective work involving all, kindness to newcomers and doing the right thing.

Ein Bilderbuch über ein Meerschweinchen namens Herr Muffin. Ein Bilderbuch über das Altwerden und Sterben. Ein Bilderbuch über den Umgang mit dem Traurigsein. Ausgezeichnet als bestes schwedisches Kinderbuch des Jahres.
Mit einer toten Hummel fängt alles an. Ester will sie begraben. Auf einer Lichtung, zu der nur der geheime Pfad der Kinder führt. Ester ist fürs Schaufeln zuständig, ?ich? für ein Gedicht am Grab und der kleine Putte soll dazu weinen. Aber e i n e Beerdigung ist natürlich nicht genug. Jetzt werden noch mehr tote Tiere gebraucht. Ester greift zum Telefon ... Ulf Nilssons Geschichte über dieses ganz ernsthafte Spiel zu Leben und Tod ist so präzise wie humorvoll. Jeder wird sich darin selbst entdecken und dabei unsentimental an den befreienden Umgang mit dem Tod zu Kinderzeiten erinnert. Auf wunderbar subtile Weise vervollständigen Eva Erikssons atmosphärische Bilder dabei die Geschichte. Ein Bilderbuch, das der schwedische Originalverlag bereits als ?Klassiker von morgen? bezeichnet.
