“A brilliant picture book! (…) The book has a “meaning of life” sparkle in the same way as the wonderful picture books by the Australian Shaun Tan.”
Kristine Isaksen, VG, 6/6 stars

«A stroke of genius! (…) Simple and smart: Per Dybvig gives us a trickster on the path of life. (…) Thoughts can turn to Vladimir and Estragon, waiting for Godot. (…) truly good morsel of a picture book. It can be both devoured and savored with care, with a flavor that lasts.»
Anne Cathrine Straume, NRK, 6/6 stars

«… an achievement to make this type of reflection accessible to both young and older readers through a story full of suspense, imagination and humor… raising the bar for Norwegian Children’s Literature.»
Einar Aarvig, Aftenposten

The animals stand in line. It looks fun, Twig thinks. He wants to join. He wants to play! It’s not a game, the animals tell him. It’s a line, they say, and order Twig to stand at the very back. Then Twig doesn’t find it to be fun anymore.

The Line is a fanciful fable and an existential drama from the forest.
