There are more of her books on Amazon, but usually people who go to Amazon know what they are looking for, and in bookstores one can skim the pages of many books. anyway, it is just weird: several editions of Pippi, and nothing else. Is it a conspiracy? Ideological reasons? Whatever? I have nothing against Pippi (it's not my favorite book, though), but where are Ronia, Emil, Mio, Karlsson, the Lionheart brothers, etc.? I wanted to make a gift, and the choice left me puzzled. (Also, Russian translation I read the books in rocks hard ;)

Tove Jansson is a good choice as well, of course. my favorite is Moominland Midwinter, though for young children I bought the one about a Comet. They are all great for kids
