Mischievous Meg

Hardcover (Viking Books for Young Readers April 16, 1962)
The Petersons lived in a comfortable old house - a big red one - down by a Swedish river which played a very important part in their lives. In winter, when it froze over, neighbors used it for a road, with horses pulling sleighs between farms. In warmer seasons the children played in it, and Ida, who helped with the work, used it for rinsing laundry. There was a time when Pharoah's daughter (Meg) almost drowned the infant Moses (Betsy) in the historic rescue from the bulrushes at the river's edge; and the time that Meg pretended that the woodshed roof was a high mountain and they picnicked on it, with sad results; and the time after time when . . . but why not read the book and find out? It's full of vivid imagination and merriment. Illustrated by Janina Domanska. Translated by Gerry Bothmer.
