About this book
Thirteen-year-old Inger Johanne has decided to write a book about the odd things that keep happening to her. The eldest of four children and the daughter of a town judge, she introduces her family with frank opinions, teasing affection and a firm belief in her own good sense. Her Norwegian seaside town offers boats, visiting ships and autumn storms, all described through a child's appetite for excitement.
Dikken Zwilgmeyer's children's novel lets Inger Johanne tell these episodes in her own quick, outspoken voice. A scheme to build a grand waterfall with her brother Karsten turns into trouble when the water takes an unexpected course down the hillside. The comedy grows from the gap between the children's proud plans and the reactions of their neighbors.
