Elsa Beskow (1874-1953) is the most popular children's author--illustrator in Sweden. Often described as Sweden's Beatrix Potter, Elsa Beskow's picture books have been known and loved for over a century. Her charming stories of children and magical folk, accompanied by her signature illustrations, are known and cherished the world over. Elsa's best known books in English include Peter in Blueberry Land, The Children of the Forest and Pelle's New Suit.

Praise for Elsa Beskow: 'Author/Illustrator Elsa Beskow shares her old fashion charm, simple dialogue and her distinctive artwork with very unique shadow cutouts in the adventure tale and travels of Peter and Lotta... Elsa Beskow should be added to other early nature writers/artists for children, like Beatrix Potter.' --Youth Services Book Review on Peter and Lotta's Adventure
