Publisher's Synopsis

A beautiful gift edition of four classic stories from Elsa Beskow's cherished Peter and Lotta series, also starring Aunt Green, Aunt Brown, Aunt Lavender and Uncle Blue.

The picture books of Swedish author-illustrator Elsa Beskow (1874-1953) have been beloved by adults and children alike for more than 100 years. Her nostalgic picture books are full of gentle humour and charm. The Elsa Beskow Peter and Lotta Collection combines four picture books � Aunt Green, Aunt Brown and Aunt Lavender; Aunt Brown's Birthday; Peter and Lotta's Adventure; and Uncle Blue's New Boat in a collectable edition.

Through the delightful tales, readers will meet orphans Peter and Lotta and their new family Aunts Green, Brown and Lavender and Uncle Blue, enjoy their adventures and discover an idyllic Sweden of long ago.

Full of whimsy and nostalgia, Beskow's classic stories are brought together for the first time in a gift edition. Adult collectors will love the faithfully reproduced vintage artwork, unique hand-crafted design, premium-quality paper, gold foil signature and a luxurious cloth spine.
