Ideal for 6 to 10 years olds, this magical children's novel about friendship, trust and valuing your precious toys is the first in a brand new series by talented author, Anna Kurkijärvi-Willans. Third-grader Charlotta loves her worn-out stuffed animal Nana more than anything, but one day the class diva Emilia brings the new toy Sunnalle to school, made by her father's toy factory.

Sunnalle is a real dream stuffed animal.  It's made from recycled fur from old stuffed animals, it can be accessorised endlessly, and what's most miraculous is that you fall in love with it immediately. But there's something strange in Sunnalle's sad eyes

When bizarre things start to happen to her Nana, Charlotta must unravel the secrets of the hit toy to save her family from leaving their beloved Helsinki home.

The woman behind Charlotta

Anna Kurkijärvi-Willans writes the Charlotta books. By day she's a journalist and copywriter who co-founded Ink Tank Media and whose take on Finnish life helped inspire Very Finnish Problems. By night she writes novels in Finnish. Somewhere in between she fixes Joel's Finnish. The teddy bears are based on extensive field research at home.
