Synopsis

Frida is a bit clumsy. She pushes over the glass with milk, ruins the pearl necklace of the new girl and hits the neighbour's green house with the football. It is hard to be Frida, because she doesn't do it on purpose. Fortunately, Grandmother is good at consoling her. And she says that she has once broken something that was much worse: a heart...

The book is warmly and atmospherically illustrated by Signe Kjær, who received the Cultural Ministry's Illustrator Prize in 2021.
