Do you know this author? "Sophie´s world" is probably his most famous book. He is from Norway so I don´t know how much known he is in GB and the US.

He is also the author of "The Solitaire Mystery", one of my favourite books and "Maya".

Any opinions?

I've only read "Sophie's World" - I think he is best known in the U.K. for that one.

Interesting author, though- maybe I ought to look out for his other books.

Holly, I´m reading "the soitaire mystery" for about the 5th time now.. I just love the book!

Celyn, I didn´t like "Sophie´s world" that much but definitely liked his other books!
