## Bio

Astrid Anna Emilia Ericsson was born in Sweden on 14 November 1907. She joined the Children's Literature Editorial Board at Rabén & Sjögren in Stockholm and began writing the series that would define her: Emil of Lönneberga, Karlsson-on-the-Roof, The Six Bullerby Children, and the fantasy novels Mio, My Son, Ronia the Robber's Daughter, and The Brothers Lionheart. She wrote more than 30 books for children. In 1994 she received the Right Livelihood Award for her authorship dedicated to children's rights and respect for their individuality. Her public campaign for animal welfare resulted in a new Swedish law - Lex Lindgren - passed in time for her 80th birthday.
