About this item

A playful picture-book tour of the Swedish alphabet, in which curious characters explore the American Swedish Institute A is for "Akta dig! Look out!" And when you do, you'll see the nyckelharpa, or keyed fiddle, that Axel's father made - which followed Axel from Sweden to America. You'll also find Axel, a snappy dresser, with his umbrella and bowler hat. He's one of the inquisitive characters who will accompany you on these pages, guiding you through the twenty-nine letters of the Swedish alphabet. Each letter does something exciting. C is "Cirkulera! Go round and round!" And for D, "Dansa! Dance!"This fun introduction to the Swedish alphabet, a romp from A to Z (and then to to ) , is also a delightful tour of the American Swedish Institute in Minneapolis, a cultural center alive with stories past and present.
