First published in 1950, "Flicka, Ricka, Dicka and Their New Skates" has an innocent charm to it that is missing in its counterparts of today. It serves as a nice transition from the buildup of receiving presents to the appreciation of them after the holidays.Though the tale is more than 60 years old, it's still relevant. Parents and grandparents will love revisiting characters from their own childhoods and children will relate to the excitement of trying out new gifts and the adventures that can come seemingly out of nowhere.A special bonus to this book is the addition of paper dolls found inside the back cover. Little girls will love playing with these sweet characters. Most of the dolls and clothes punch out easily, however there are a few items, including the dog Mike, that will require adult supervision as they're cut out with scissors. Also, please keep in mind there are two versions of this book available. One does not include the paper dolls. If you want them, make sure you get the updated version.

A fun story about darling triplet girls - another of Maj Lindman's excellent books for young reader - such nice illustrations, and a story line that keeps their attention. Enjoyable for children about ages 3-8.

I bought the series at Christmas for my 4 granddaughters--two of them can read--the others are read to. ALL love it. We have twins int the family so it was doubly interesting--no triplets (thank God). Alll the girls were loving the stories that are about caring young girls making good choices. That's something you don't find easily these days. I didn't get the paper dolls as advertised , but their happiness over these books that all of them will share is good enought

The Review below was my first review, but I called , and they sent me a new book right away. The new book is perfect. I recommend this book to 4-8 year olds. The story is simple and charming. BUT make sure to buy the hard cover, not the soft cover, because the words and pictures look a LOT better in the hard cover. In fact, both the words and pictures are quite ugly in the soft cover. We own several Flicka Ricka Dicka books and Snipp Snapp Snurr books. Unfortunately, the Snipp Snapp Snurr are not available in hard cover, so we do enjoy Flicka Ricka Dicka better, and I believe it is because the soft covers just don't look very nice.This is a beautiful book, EXCEPT that the pages were sewed in the wrong order. The story is all mixed up! This is my favorite of all the Flicka Ricka Dicka books. The story is very interesting to children and the illustrations are so lovely. It was a Christmas present to my daughter, and man, what a disappointment when I went to read it to two of my children. I have got to find a better copy.

A favorite story about independent and clever triplet girls from Sweden. The girls and their dog have a winter adventure that turns out to be dangerous due to some misbehavior. This book deals with friendship, safety, forgiveness, and outdoor adventure.This particular book from the series has been unavailable for decades. This is a beautiful hardback book with three dimensional sparkles and even bonus paper dolls. Great read-aloud book for upper pre-school and behind or independent reading for second grade.

This was such a fun story that brings you back in time. The timeless nature of this book and the story itself were ones that my girls just thoroughly enjoyed. On top of this though, I have to be honest and say that outside of the great story itself, my girls really enjoyed playing with the paper dolls that came with the book itself. This book, which is part of a larger series is a great addition to a Christmas collection that any home holds within it!

I was very disappointed not to receive the paper dolls that were to come with the book. The one review written on this book mentioned the paper dolls which I knew my daughter would love.

The first books that I remember reading (other than Dick and Jane) were the Flicka, Ricka and Dicka series and the Snipp, Snapp and Snurr books written by the same author. The latter trio were triplet boys. I'm sure that the unique names have something to do with my remembering them -- those names have stuck in my memory since I was a little girl. The books had colorful illustrations and delightful stories (as I recall) and I'm delighted to see that they are still in print.
