“Through her easily accessible expression, the illustrator firmly holds the reader into the story, only to set the pace towards an aesthetic myriad of ways to show how difficult life can be for a child who is subjected to the consequences of “things that we adults have to decide”.”
Janne Karin Støylen, Bergens Tidende

Ester and Mum are fine together. Just the two of them. Then Mum tells Ester that her boyfriend Tor are moving in. So will Bo, Tor’s son. Ester doesn’t want a bonus family. The only thing she wants is a guinea pig.

A story about getting a bonus brother you haven’t asked for,
about doing something about it,
and about understanding that you might got it all wrong.
