It is time to go on... The book is travelling to its next reader!

Have a great 2011 Summer Gift Giving Season to you!!

The book and goodies arrived safely on a hot day in Helsinki.
Thank you so much for sending something to Helsinki for the Summer Gift Giving 2011!
We're looking forward to reading this book, as Studio Ghibli made a film about it that will come to cinemas in Finland this autumn (probably)

Managed to read this wonderful book (great drawings in there by the way) about the small people living under the old houses. Was a very nice story, well written and with the small suspence you would need in a book that you want to keep reading up to the end. It's very clear this is the first part and is intended to be continued in later parts of the series, but the story goes alone too. At least we have the next books at home already ;)

The book goes next to my daughter to be read, I needed it for the Alphabet-challenge on the forum (read through the Finnish Alphabet with the family names of the writers - this was my N)
