Lotta, the youngest in the family, dreams that her sister and brother are bothering her favorite stuffed animal. She wakes up furious with them, and will not believe that they are innocent. On top of that, her mother tells her to wear a sweater that is itchy and scratchy. She starts to alter the sweater, and after trying unsuccessfully to even up the damage, completely destroys it. Of course her mother is angry. Since no one in the family appreciates her, she runs away to the neighbor's garage loft. The neighbor graciously lets Lotta "move in."Fans of "Alexander and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day" and Beverly Cleary's Ramona series will enjoy Lotta's story. The writing flows well both for read-aloud as well as beginning readers. As an elementary school library media specialist, I have recommended this book to many students and parents.
We love Astrid Lindgren's writings. My 4 year old really enjoys the capers of Lotta. It is a great way for us to be able to discuss feelings. There are some words that I edit while I read such as "stupid". The book is still great and we are also enjoying the "Emil" books. Lindgren really understood young children and their feelings. She acknowledged their frustrations and empowered them at the same time.
I bought this for my 8 year old grandson's reading class. We enjoyed reading it (I read one page and he read the next page). Not only was it cute to me, but it was also interesting. It told a story that all children want to experience at one time or another as they seek their independence. And it was told with love.
Can't wait to read this with my kindergarten granddaughter .....How I loved reading this to her mom,too. We are collecting "real" and iPad books from our child's days to share with the next generation. This is a loving book about Lotta, who embraces love,curiosity, and age- appropriate trouble, and comes to her own conclusions (with clever and loving family help). Not another trite Barbie/tinkerbell/fairy tale. This is the real stuff good childrens' literature is made of, split infinitive aside.
Lotta on Troublemaker Street is an adventurous, fantasy written by Astrid Lindgren. This is her first series ever and she's off to a good start! Another book in the series of the Troublemaker Kids is The Children on Troublemaker Street.Lotta Nyman is 5 years old and very anxious to see the world. She starts off in her own bedroom disagreeing with everything her mother says in the morning. Finally she gets furious and moves out into her neighbor's attic. When night fell she got freaked out as her dad climbed up the attic stairway. Before she knew it her dad was carrying her out the door as she told him all about it. When she got back to her house she forgave her mom and went back to sleep. Do you think there is anymore trouble ahead of Lotta?I would recommend this novel for 2nd -4th graders. The word choice was fantaststic by using clever words but easy to understand. This book deserves a 4 stars considering that it is very short.
My children enjoy reading Astrid Lindgren's books. My 6 year old daughter especially loves the 'Lotta' series (other books- the kids from troublemaker street). It's a pity that there aren't more of her books available in English. We own a lot of other similar good ones in German that you can only find at the library in English.
This book is about a girl who wanted to wear a pretty dress but her mom wanted her to wear her purple sweater and she didn't even want to eat because she was so mad. She went to her neighbor's house and lived in her attic. I think you should read it because it's super silly.
