A little laugh

Here is a little laugh inbetween studying for everyone


And then Some parts of my childhood, will probably not make sense to anyone:

Ronja is a book by Astrid Lindgren that was made into a movie. I am grown up on this story. It was a major part of what shaped me as a child.
The story: Ronja is the daughter of Mattis, the local robber leader. They live in an old castle that cracked the night Ronja was born. One day when she is around 12 she meets Birk,the son of the rival robber leader,Borka. Borka and his gang have moved into the part of the castle that the Mattis group is not using. The two children becomes friends, but their father's try to split them up. It ends with the children running away to the forest and refusing to come back unless their fathers make friends. At the same time Futen (old word for police/taxperson) is cracking down on the robbers. Mattis and Borka decide that if they join forces they will have so many followers that Futen would not dare to do anything against them.

The Party after Mattis is crowned king of the joined robber gang

The lullaby that Ronja's mother sings.

Yes, my horses are named after the two kids, Ronja and Birk.


Brother's Lionheart also by Lindgren
Two Brother's from our world die and become freedom heroes in the next world.


Mio min Mio, really sad story by Lindgren.
I swear I only remember bits of this story, but I used to love it.
