Matthias, Pelle the Little and Donut, like all children, know a thing or two about the joys of life. They will be able to safely hide a treasure, save a chick that has fallen out of the nest and rescue a friend who has fallen into an open hatch. The world around them is kind and reliable, and they will always help. The baker will stand up for Matthias, a passerby will give him a shiny crown, and the police will treat him to buns and raspberry juice.
This book is the first of a trilogy about Matthias and his friends. Its author is Barbro Lindgren. The writer's talent was discovered by Astrid Lindgren, her namesake. The series about Matthias was Barbro's debut; stories about him were published by Raben & Sjogren, where Astrid worked as an editor. Since then, the books have been translated into thirty languages and published in the USSR and Russia. Barbro herself became a laureate of the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Prize and... her namesake Astrid.
