55 meter under ytan släpps i Nederländerna
Nu är 55 meter under ytan släppt i Nederländerna, överst av Lammi Post och illustrerad av av Jeska Verstegen.
Och vilka recensioner jag fått. Några få exempel på vad som skrivits:
"A gripping dive into the past – 55 meters under water will never let you go."
"Impressive and moving"
"Despite the intense themes, the author has succeeded in writing a warm and loving story. A story that made me laugh and cry in turns. You won't find any illustrations in the book, but I was immediately deeply impressed by the beautiful cover and the gorgeous endpapers."
"55 Meters Under Water is an impressive and moving story for children aged about 10 and up."
"55 Meters Under Water is a beautiful, impressive, and gripping children's book that tells the imaginative, adventurous, and compelling story of twelve-year-old Bengt Gustav, whose father is alcoholic. He tries every possible way to repair mistakes in his father's past in the hope of solving the problem, but this only makes things more hopeless. Through the metaphor of a lifeboat, Bengt Gustav realizes that he must let people in to save the situation. Truly incredibly impressive and beautiful!"
"55 Meters Under Water is a beautiful story about a child caught between his father and the authorities. A valuable book to read, especially for teachers."
"Conny Palmkvist has an enchanting writing style, as light as a feather. There's something cheerful, something innocent, the naivety that children still possess, as if it were written from a child's perspective. A nice counterpoint to the central theme of this book: alcoholism. It ensures that the story never feels heavy."
"This story is imaginative, funny, and adventurous, and the beautiful metaphors and imagery make it accessible for ages 10-12 and up."
