Now a lot has been written about childhood and youth Astrid Lindgren, about how she turned into a famous writer from a modest housewife, but until recently, almost nothing was known about the period when she worked in the publishing house. Meanwhile, Astrid devoted 24 years of her life to this work, was the first editor of children"s books in Sweden and one of the most successful publishers. When she came to the small modest publishing house Raben & Sjogren, it was on the verge of bankruptcy, and five years later it became one of the leading in Sweden. Having already become famous and received large fees from the sale of her own works, Astrid continued to come to the office every day as an ordinary employee and treated this work with enormous responsibility. It was a very rich time of her life, but Astrid did not advertise this activity and did not apply about her in an interview. Cel Bolunda collected material for the book literally bit by bit, based on the letters Astrid Lindgren, asking her colleagues and writers with whom she spoke, carefully comparing this information with the minutes of the company"s meetings, annual reports, book novelties and publications in the press. Now we have the opportunity to discover Astrid Lindgren from a completely new side
