Keeping up with Findus

Findus the talking cat challenges Pettson to join him as he runs, jumps and clambers around the farm. Pettson tries to keep up, with comical results. However, there is one thing that he is very good at!

This brightly illustrated book is aimed at readers from 2-6 years but can be enjoyed by all.

The Findus series follows the adventures and misdemeanours of the mischievous Findus the Cat and Farmer Pettson along with their muckle friends. As they plant, forage, fish, discover and get up to all sorts of mayhem we can explore with them the ups and downs of friendship, fights and forgiveness.

Alongside the vibrant storylines the Findus books approach personal and social issues which the characters learn to overcome with humour and playfulness.

These friendly, fun stories are perfect for reading aloud and exciting for those who are learning to read by themselves.

About the Author

Sven Nordqvist is a leading Swedish children’s illustrator and writer. Nordqvist was born in Helsingborg and grew up in Halmstad, Sweden. He originally wanted to be an illustrator but was rejected by several art schools. Instead, he studied architecture in Lund and worked as a lecturer in architecture in the university. Meanwhile, he looked for work as an illustrator of advertisements, posters, and picture books. In 1983, he won first prize in a children’s book competition and since then has worked exclusively as an author and illustrator of children’s books, which have won awards in Sweden and Germany. The Findus and Pettson stories draw on his own playful adventures with his two young sons. Nordqvist’s unique illustrations are inspired by his delight in everyday life.
