A classic children’s picture book in the popular ‘Aunt’ series. Peter and Lotta need to find homes for some kittens. Washerwoman Wendy is always grumpy with them, but they hope that a gift will cheer her up — and it does!
That’s just the start of a day of unexpected adventures for two of Elsa Beskow’s most loved characters, as they find themselves asleep on a cart, at a mill miles from home and at a fair, disguised as an old man and woman.
Full of Elsa Beskow’s characteristic charming storytelling and gentle illustrations, Peter and Lotta set off on a day of unexpected adventures. Will they get found out in the end?
