Astrid Lindgren 100 years...

photo on Astrid Lindgren.

Today it is 100 years since Astrid Lindgren was born. About her on her own site. A British journalist now living in Sweden, father of two girls and his view on Astrid and her books. About the author:

"David Wiles is a British journalist living in Sweden. He never had the pleasure of discovering Astrid Lindgren's books as a youngster, but as the father of two young girls he now considers himself something of an expert on the exploits of Pippi Longstocking & Co." :-)

On this site there are other links. And at last at Swedish Televisions home site.
