The book of Comfort
Stories in norwegian Nynorsk

Have you ever been so sad that you thought nothing in the world could comfort you?

Or has your dad ever been so sick that you needed a big, big hug?

And can you imagine there being anyone who has never had a hug in their life?

The Comfort Book is the third book in the series of newly written stories in Norwegian. After the two award-winning first books, Goodnight Book and Fairy Tale Book, the authors write in this book about needing comfort and about giving comfort to others.

Genuine, rich and beautifully illustrated for the youngest and oldest.

Mari Nymoen Nilsen, VG

— Some of our best writers have been challenged to write a story for comfort. This has been very successful and varied.
