About the author:
Astrid
Lindgren, the creator of Pippi Longstocking, Emil, and dozens of other
world-famous characters, has thrilled three generations of children with
her storytelling. She is the only children’s author with a literary
prize, a theme park, a museum, a satellite, and a minor planet named in
her honor. (After this last honor, she suggested changing her name to
“Asteroid Lindgren.”) A jury appointed by Swedish Radio’s Culture
Department to elect the “Author of the Millennium” voted Astrid Lindgren
second after William Shakespeare. She was awarded the Hans Christian
Andersen Medal and heaps of other awards and honors.

MY REVIEW:
Wow! That is all the words I have about this book! This book absolutely has it all! From warmth, humor, danger, excitement, incredible characters, and an ending that is very satisfying. This book is about Rasmus who is an orphan and watches all the curly haired girls get adopted and all he wants is a home. So, he runs away from the orphanage and meets a Vagabond named Oscar. This book is full of all their adventures I just loved it!
The book itself is very simple and a very quick read. Those are the best books aren't they?! This book is perfect for any child and I will be buying some as presents soon. This book is really good and I would totally recommend it . I give this book 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it to all my readers!
