The Calf for Christmas

On the eve of Christmas, the Johan family's troubles begin: their only cow dies, and mom and dad have no money to buy a new one. But it turns out that in the most difficult life situations, circumstances often unfold in such an amazing way that what happens seems like a true miracle — as if higher powers are weaving the fabric of our lives to protect us, balancing every evil in the world with good. This wonderful Christmas story by Astrid Lindgren, which has become a classic of children's literature, is being published for the first time in translation into Russian.
