The Kerfuffle in the Marsh (2023)

Nominated for CoR - The Reykjavik Children‘s Literature Prize for the best illustrations 2024

Something strange is happening far out in the bubbling and sloshing marsh. What are these red splashes everywhere? Is it ketchup? Strawberry jam? Or maybe they are BLOOD SPLASHES?

In this book we meet Moses in the blue house and the triplets Stella, Elli and Bella in the grey house. In addition, the marsh monster who huddles alone in his hole and feasts on cinnamon rolls. We encounter a suspicious book-bus-driver, a mother of triplets immersed in secret missions, and we may find out how to learn to understand bird language!

The previous book in the Marsh Tales series was nominated for the Icelandic Literary Award and the Reykjavik Children’s Book Prize.
