The Six Bullerby Children

These books are about six children living in a small village in Sweden and are set in the late 1930s, a calm time in Sweden. The narrator is a little girl named Lisa; she tells us about her life and adventures in the small and neat Swedish village Bullerby (Bullerbyn in Swedish). Well-written and catching story for the whole family.

The village consists of three lined up houses in which live seven children with their parents and housekeepers: Lisa with her older brothers Lasse and Bosse, the siblings Britta and Anna, as well as Olle with his little sister Kerstin.
