Cardamom Town is quite a strange place where the unexpected is to be expected, such as meeting donkeys and camels in the streets – or even elephants. You’ll also find inhabitants such as Old Tobias and his tower house, Puddleson the tram driver, Patterson the barber, Aunt Sophia and little Camomilla, and Police Inspector Bastian who never wants to arrest anyone. On the outskirts of town, you’ll meet the three robbers Casper, Jesper and Jonathan.

Get to know Cardamom Town through illustrations, stories and songs in this English edition Thorbjørn Egner-classic.
