The greatest story of my childhood,
By
This review is from: Ronia, the Robber's Daughter (Paperback)
This has always been the greatest story I remember from my childhood, the story that taught me more than everyone around, and inspired me a great deal for the future. I bought it now for my child and found it as meaningful as ever. A remarkable book for all ages!

I love this story!,
By MaLuoDan "ma_luo_dan" (Arlington, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ronia, the Robber's Daughter (Paperback)
Growing up, this was my favorite of the Astrid Lindgren stories, with the number two spot held by "Mio my Mio". I hadn't read it in translation before, and while I still think the original Swedish was better, this translation keeps the wonders of the book intact. Great and interesting creatures, fantastic characters, and a great and complex story. A lot of fun to read and highly recommended.

A masterpiece,
By Britt Arnhild Lindland (Norway) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ronia, the Robber's Daughter (Paperback)
Astrid Lindgren has written so many fantastic books, it is impossible to name them all. But Ronia, the Robber's Daughter is among the best ones.Ronia is born among a clan of robbers, and grows up surronded by love. But as she grows up she will discover that her small world is threatened from the outside. We are taken into a tale of strong friendship and love, a world where you are strong only because people love you, and you love other people. This is not a sweet love story, but a story where every child and grown up can learn important things about life. About forgiveness. About fright. And most of all about love. Ronia, and her friend Birk are strong children. But at the same time they can cry and they can show their weakness. Lindgren is a master in showing the whole specter of human feelings. And it is very easy to believe in her characters, believe that they are real, cause they show real human feelings. Many children must go through hard times, and feelings can be almost impossible to talk about. Lindgren's books are of great help. And best and most important of all, Ronia is a book about love, love as the strongest feeling. With love you can overcome. Britt Arnhild Lindland
