The Great Cake QuakeThe Adventures of Ronny Calzone

Per Andersson, Kristian Wedel , illustrated by Anton Lundqvist

Welcome to The Adventures of Ronny Calzone – where danger lurks behind doilies and dentures!

Ten-year-old Albert may live in the dreadfully dull town of Östköping, but every chance he gets, he hops on a bus to visit his grandmother Sonya in the far more thrilling Västbacka.

Because Sonya is no ordinary grandma – and neither are her friends in the party orchestra Green Trombones. By day, they bake cookies and play bridge. By night (or whenever necessary), they’re secret agents on a mission to protect Västbacka from crime and chaos. Their latest case? Preventing the theft of the town’s most precious jewel during the grand festival, Kakbraket. But to pull it off, they’ll need disguises, distraction tactics – and maybe even a magic trick or two.

Luckily, Albert has a secret identity of his own: Ronny Calzone, aspiring magician extraordinaire! And while his tricks don’t always go as planned, a little sleight of hand might be just what the mission needs…

This is the first wild and wonderful adventure in a brand new series by comedian Per Andersson and journalist Kristian Wedel – a sparkling, action-packed mystery full of mayhem, mischief, and musical mayhem. Perfect for fans of Roald Dahl and Martin Widmark, and ideal for reading aloud or devouring on your own. Illustrated in colour by actor and illustrator Anton Lundqvist.
