Far up in the north is a blueberry-blue house with a grass roof, where
Lisa and Nils live. One day a tourist arrives: Otto has cycled for
months, maybe years, to visit his friends.
Otto wants to do a spectacular painting of the northern lights to
remember his visit, but he is from a hot country and it is very cold
here. He can't paint for shivering so hard. His friends decide to knit
him a sweater.
Otto Goes North is a cozy story about friendship across borders and
knitting--follow the animals as they collect fur, spin and dye yarn,
find a pattern, and knit a sweater.
