«Die Kinder aus der Krachmacherstrasse» is Astrid Lindgren's children's book, published by Oetinger Verlag in hardcover (109 pages, in German).
Jonas, Mia-Maria and Lotta live in a yellow house on Krachmacherstrasse. Lotta, the youngest and most stubborn, wants to grow up so she doesn't depend on her siblings; among her antics, she hangs pancakes on a tree and plays at being a little lamb. Lindgren portrays childhood with humor and tenderness.
First installment of the series «Barnen på Bråkmakargatan». The work originally appeared in 1958 and this German edition is translated by Thyra Dohrenburg.
For children's and young adult readers who want to approach a classic by Astrid Lindgren.
Astrid Anna Emilia Lindgren was a Swedish writer of fiction and screenplays. She is most notable for several children's book series, featuring Pippi Longstocking, Emil of Lönneberga, Karlsson-on-the-Roof, and The Six Bullerby Children, and for the children's fantasy novels Mio, My Son; Ronia the Robber's Daughter; and The Brothers Lionheart. Lindgren worked on the Children's Literature Editorial Board at the Rabén & Sjögren publishing house in Stockholm and wrote more than 30 books for children. In 2017, she was calculated to be the world's 18th most translated author. Lindgren had by 2010 sold roughly 167 million books worldwide. In 1994, she was awarded the Right Livelihood Award for "her unique authorship dedicated to the rights of children and respect for their individuality". Her campaigning for animal welfare led to a new law, Lex Lindgren, in time for her 80th birthday.
