Abstract

In keeping with the Scandinavian theme of this issue, to celebrate the 2008 IBBY congress in Copenhagen, all the books reviewed here are from Scandinavia: a pictorial biography of Astrid Lindgren; a scholarly edition of Pippi Longstocking; together with three other books from scholarly series. These scholarly series – which reflect the preoccupations of Scandinavian scholarship and also include contributions from non-Scandinavian countries – complement the wide-ranging overviews provided by journals and periodicals and allow us to trace overarching trends in children's book research in the Nordic countries over the years
