One wonderful boy lives on the Katthult farm. Extremely independent and restless. There are so many interesting things in the world! And I really want to try everything. So he pushes young Emil Svensson to do some heroic deeds - he’ll put a tureen on his head, then he’ll decide to show his sister around, or he’ll go to soldier training. Mom writes about his antics in thick blue notebooks, and they often have to be changed! © Franka ( In Sweden there lives a curly-haired boy with blue eyes named Emil, who endlessly gets into various troubles. Either he slaps a cake in the burgomaster's face, then he ends up in blueberry jelly, then, together with a rooster and a pig, he gorges himself on drunken cherries - and all this with the best intentions. (Publisher’s abstract)Note: Based on the book “Emil i Lonneberga” (“The Adventures of Emil from Lonneberga”), a film of the same name was made (Sweden, 1971; director Olle Hellbom), a feature film “The Tricks of a Tomboy” (USSR, 1985; director V. Brasla) and the television film “Emila nedarbi” (Latvia, 1985).
