About the Author | Sven Nordqvist (b, 1946) is a well-loved Swedish children’s author and illustrator. The Findus and Pettson stories draw on his playful adventures with his two young sons, and his unique illustrations are inspired by a delight in everyday life. Sven Nordqvist sets out intentionally to create a safe world in his Pettson and Findus series; a world in which problems can find resolution. Such a world, he believes, provides the security that children need in today’s world: “The world should be comprehensible. Essentially that’s how I myself would like it to be.”Nathan Large has translated eight of the Findus and Pettson books from Swedish to English, and now lives in Sweden with his family. |
