This edition (published by Opal) seems well-translated, but I've no way to judge how much was lost from the original. I wish I could find more of the series, or knew a child so I could justify buying them. Great fun! The hens are addle-pated, as hens are, Findus is both like a child and like a young cat, and Pettson is kindly, but clearly is accustomed to living alone. Though it looks like a tots picture-book, it's a bit long and complex and probably better for age 5 or 6 up. (

У Петсона на чердаке хранится куча всякой всячины. Как-то раз Финдусу на глаза попался старый спальный мешок. На Петсона сразу нахлынули воспоминания, как в юности он ходил в поход, как удил рыбу у дальнего озера и ночевал в палатке... На этот раз на рыбалку к дальнему озеру они не пошли, но в палатке все же переночевали. Правда, у себя во дворе.
