Flicka, Ricka and Dicka
Who couldn't love these three little girls from Sweden?
This was my very first favorite book series. These and Snipp, Snapp & Snurr of course! Both series were written and illustrated by Maj Lindman
The colorful and full page illustrations really spoke to me. I poured over them, noting every detail.
The bold print was large and easy to read, once I learned.
They were perfect for five year old me. You could "read" the story just from the illustration.
But when I learned to read, I read this series over and over. The prose was simple but not childish. The books never talked down to children.
I liked the idea of being a triplet, but with sisters close in age on either side of me, I felt like one. I'm glad they are in print again, but I love the old library copies best.
