Mormor Moves In

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Louise-Andrée Laliberté. When five-year-old Astrid's morfar (grandfather) dies in Sweden, her mormor (grandmother) moves in with Astrid's family. Mormor's traditional ways cause problems for Astrid, but when Mormor finds a replacement for Astrid's lost teddy bear, grandmother and granddaughter reach a new understanding. The text is overly long, but the soft illustrations lend comfort to this story about loss and love.
