“The little Swedish town was very picturesque, with its cobblestone streets, its tiny houses and the garden that surrounded them.”
Astrid Lindgrens barndom på gården Näs i Vimmerby, Småland, strax efter sekelskiftet var en lycklig tid, med föräldrarnas kärlek som en ständig trygghet. Astrid och de tre syskonen lekte ivrigt på den fantastiska lekplats Näs var. Men dagarna bestod inte enbart av lek, all arbetskraft behövdes på ett lantbruk och barnen Ericsson delade slitet med pigor och drängar. Det var i köket hos lagårdskarlens dotter Edit Astrid fick höra den saga som först väckte hennes läshunger – en lust till böcker som varade livet igenom. I skolan är Astrid duktig på att skriva och blir kallad för Vimmerbys Selma Lagerlöf efter att ha fått en uppsats publicerad i Vimmerby Tidning – där hon senare också får arbete
