The Sun Egg by Elsa Bescow is a story filled with fun forest creatures who live together in the forest - sweet and gentle Elf, mischievous Larch and crusty old Crooked Root and the Laughing Frogs, to name a few.
When a mysterious orange egg has fallen into the woods everyone is curious about what it could be. "It's a sun egg!" declares the elf who finds it, but soon she and her friends find out what it really is.
Elsa Beskow (1874-1953) is the most popular children's illustrator in Sweden, where her picture books have been known and loved for over a century.
