“Elsa Beskow’s picture books for children have been known and loved for over a century.  Deep n the roots of an old pine tree live the children of the forest.  Playing hide-and-seek with the squirrels, snowballing in the winter, each season brings its own adventures – but perhaps spring holds the best surprise of all.”
