A signed Finnish-language children's adventure novel — written entirely in Finnish, signed by the author. Perfect for Finnish-speaking kids ages 6–10, families raising bilingual children, and anyone keeping the Finnish language alive abroad.
When fourth-grader Charlotta is whisked off to Teddyland with her teddy bear Nana, the fairytale world she's always dreamed about is in chaos. A theme park is being built on top of the bears' homes, the forests are being cut down, and the wrong kinds of toys are being banished by the cunning Viola Vanamo.
Why are the teddy bears helping destroy their own land? And what happens to the toys who don't fit Viola's plans?
A heartfelt Finnish children's story about courage, hope, and how every toy — like every person — is equally precious.
