Summary

This classic Swedish novel is an absurd tale full of playful nonsense in a world where anything can happen. This glorious mix of Spike Milligan with Pippi Longstocking is like the Swedish Winnie the Pooh.

Soda Pop Summary

Soda Pop by Barbro Lindgren

Soda Pop loves bright orange clothes and wears a tea cozy on his head. He has brought up his son Mazarin on sweet buns and love. Grandfather Dartanyong emerges from his woodshed every morning with a new identity, and Great-grandfather has moved into a tree, eats birdseed, and thinks he is a cuckoo. Theirs is a carefree life, untroubled by social norms. In this tolerant world anything can happen-is the garage suddenly full of tigers? We are not surprised. An anarchic story full of playful nonsense, in which the usual rules and prejudices do not exist.

Soda Pop Reviews

There's a sublime sort of craziness to it that catches me unawares every time. Neither Soda Pop nor Mazarin nor Dartanyong speaks a single word of sense, but they will be my friends for life. -- Astrid Lindgren, author of Pippi Longstocking
A whimsical, lighthearted, unique reading experience -- School Library Journal (US)
... deliciously diverting. -- Kirkus Reviews
