Bad Luck, Evert

First, Grandma talks too long on the phone. The curious Evert accidentally swallows one of her hatpins, and they have to rush to the hospital. This misadventure turns into a good story when Evert ends up in hospital room number four with three other boys. Suddenly he is the centre of attention, which makes Torsten in the next bed more and more annoyed. And one day, the newspaper wants to come and do a story …

Eva Bexell’s funny books about Evert are beloved classics illustrated by Eva Eriksson with wonderfully humorous black-and-white pictures. Bad Luck, Evert was published in 1989 and takes place in a bygone era, when people still called each other Sir and Madam and adults wore hats! Published simultaneously as Evert in Trouble Again in the category “A Little More to Read”. Perfect for readers who want to move on from “Easy to Read” and who like Eva Bexell’s books about Grandpa.
