Vesta-Linnéa and the Monster Mum
It could have been a day just like any other day, but this morning starts off badly.
In this contemporary classic, we follow Vesta-Linnéa and her mother during a completely ordinary day. But on this particular day, everything goes wrong. The problems start immediately in the morning when Vesta-Linnéa does not want to put on her tights. The difficulties pile up over the course of the day, and she and her mother go on arguing about all the things that most families bicker about. Finally, Vesta-Linnéa’s mother turns into a very angry monster mum!
Vesta-Linnéa and the Monster Mum is a warm and humorous story about everyday, escalating conflicts and about how mothers sometimes get so angry that they turn into monster mums. The brilliant story is brought to life by Salla Savolainen’s wonderful illustrations that depict Appelgren’s world perfectly.
