Description

Make summer holidays even more fun with LasseMajas sommarlovsbok – En oväntad tjuv, a Swedish activity book packed with a brand-new LasseMaja mystery, puzzles, games and plenty of things to do throughout the summer.

This 2026 summer edition takes young readers back to Valleby, where the Police Chief has arranged a tricky tipspromenad – a Swedish-style quiz walk filled with clues and questions.

Everyone wants to take part and solve the clues, including the priest and the famously grumpy Rune. But what begins as a friendly competition soon leads toward something much more mysterious.

Who will solve the clues first – and who exactly is the unexpected thief?

Alongside the new story, children will find lots of summer activities, puzzles, games and ideas designed to keep them entertained at home, on holiday or during long journeys.

Please note: This book is written entirely in Swedish.

A Brand-New LasseMaja Summer Mystery

Summer has arrived in Valleby, and the Police Chief has prepared a challenging quiz walk for everyone in town.

The participants have to follow the clues, answer the questions and work out where the trail is leading.

Naturally, things in Valleby rarely stay simple for very long.

Among the participants are familiar characters including the priest and grumpy Rune, who do their best to cooperate as everyone races to reach the final answer.

But somewhere along the way, the competition becomes connected to an unexpected thief.

Can you work out what is happening before Lasse and Maja do?

Much More Than a Storybook

LasseMajas sommarlovsbok combines reading with activities, making it especially useful during the long summer holidays.

In addition to the newly written mystery, the book contains a variety of:

• Summer puzzles

• Activities

• Games

• Challenges

• Things to do with friends

• Ideas for keeping busy during the holidays

Children can read for a while, complete an activity and then return to the mystery later.

It is designed as a book that can stay entertaining throughout the summer rather than being finished in a single sitting.

Perfect for Summer Holidays

This book is especially handy when someone announces:

“I’m bored.”

Keep it nearby for:

• Summer holidays

• Road trips

• Flights

• Train journeys

• Days at the summer house

• Rainy afternoons

• Quiet time

• Beach holidays

• Visits to grandparents

• Lazy afternoons in the hammock

With both reading and activities in the same book, children can choose what they feel like doing at the moment.

Welcome Back to Valleby

Lasse and Maja run the famous LasseMajas Detektivbyrå in the small town of Valleby.

Whenever something mysterious happens, the two young detectives are ready to investigate, search for clues and work out who is responsible.

The series combines easy-to-follow mysteries with humor, recognizable characters and Helena Willis' distinctive illustrations.

En oväntad tjuv brings that familiar detective world into a summer activity book, allowing children to spend even more time in Valleby.

Solve the Mystery Alongside Lasse & Maja

One of the most enjoyable parts of LasseMaja stories is trying to solve the mystery before the answer is revealed.

Children can pay attention to:

• Clues

• Suspicious behavior

• What different characters say

• Things that do not quite make sense

• Who was where

• What might be important later

It encourages young readers to observe carefully and think about what they have read while still enjoying an entertaining story.

Activities to Enjoy with Friends

Not everything in this summer book has to be done alone.

The book also contains ideas for activities, games and things to do with friends, making it useful when children are looking for something different to try during the school holidays.

It can become part of a relaxed summer day – read a few pages, solve a puzzle, try an activity and then head outside before coming back to the book later.

Perfect for Swedish-Speaking Children Abroad

For Swedish families living outside Sweden, summer activity books are a fun way to keep Swedish reading going even when school is out.

Because this book combines stories, instructions, puzzles and activities, children encounter Swedish in several different ways rather than simply reading continuous text.

It is a great choice for:

• Swedish-speaking families abroad

• Bilingual children

• Children developing their Swedish

• Swedish grandparents sending summer gifts overseas

• Holiday reading

• Maintaining Swedish vocabulary

• Independent readers

• LasseMaja fans

• Building a Swedish children's book collection
