Description
A brilliant detective story by one of Sweden's top children's writers and illustrated in full colour throughout. A book to read alone or aloud! A perfect case for the famous Detective Gordon, chief of police and chief of detectives in the forest. Unfortunately, solving this crime means standing in the snow and waiting for a long time . . . If only he had an assistant - someone small, fast, and clever.
"The Detective Gordon series is like the best kind of friendship: full of humour and delicious cakes but giving space to think about the way we all are. We could all learn from Detective Gordon." Julia Marshall, Publisher
