To the amazement of her neighbors, Tommy and Annika, she sleeps with her feet on the pillow and her head under the covers, bakes cookies on the floor, performs her own act at the circus, takes on two burglars single-handedly, and has a most unusual birthday party.” - Astrid Lindgren.

In the end the robbers are arrested, but good treatment in the jail by the kindly constable Bastian reforms them, and in the final chapter they become the hero of the day when they extinguish the fire in the tower of the town.

Four hens live on a chicken farm. A little rooster lives there, too. "What a nice little rooster you have here," everyone says when they come to visit. Indeed, it seems so for a while. But then the rooster begins to take more food for himself, and the hens get less. When the hens try talking to him about fairness, they're not prepared for his reaction. The rooster turns into an egotistical barnyard bully, and the hens are worse off than before. Finally, the oldest hen puts her foot down: "We can't go on like this. We must do something." Expressive and witty illustrations give lots of pluck to this hilarious barnyard tale from Sweden's most beloved husband-and-wife duo.
