boy, this was another story that I wasn't sure I was going to like, I found before too long, that wasn't the case, What a surprise! I fell in love with it! It was such a sweet, charming story with more than one subtle character building points.
Rasmus is tired of being passed over for girls with curly hair, He has two strikes against him when it comes to getting a family, He's a boy. AND he has straight hair, So when he innocently gets in trouble several times in one day, he hightails it out of the orphanage, He tries to be brave, but he is cold, hungry and just a tiny bit afraid okay, maybe more afraid at times than he wants to admit.
That is until he meeets, Paradise Oscar, Oscar becomes a buddy over time, someone who helps him, while still helping Rasmus keep his dignity, That part is so well done, that it made me smile every time it happened, That and the fact that Rasmus so often found himself less acceptable because he had straight hair, Don't get me wrong, I wasn't smiling because he felt somehow flawed but I smiled at the many times, in innocence he wove it into different conversations.
The crooks in the story, give both Rasmus and Oscar a lot of grief but in the end, justice is served.
But the mystery of the chase is enjoyable, There is a lazy day kind of wandering that Oscar and Rasmus did, that gave it a warm feeling but it also had adventure, and some challenges.
Just in case anyone thinks its a snoozer, its not,
Oh and brace yourself, you might not see the end coming the way it does, I like that a lot too!
The cover is a bit old world style and I didn't really care for it at first but I found it grew on me.
The same could also be said of the black and white sketches that are inside the book, This kind of illustration is not normally a favorite with me, Its probably because I've gotten spoiled with the more elaborate ones we see in most books, BUT, not only did this style grow on me, it seemed to fit with the fresh, innocent simplicity of the story, This story really surprised me, I went from doubting I'd like it, to loving it and wanting to put it into my Keeper Library,
I received the book in this post compliments of Plough Publishing via Handlebar Marketing for purposes of this review, however all opinions are my own.
Fullkomligt underbar landsvägslyssning. nüüd ma tean, miks ma ei suutnud seda raamatut lapsena lõpuni lugeda, kahju oli. mu järjehoidja oli poole raamatu peal, võtsin kätte, lugesin algusest lõpuni, raske, liiga emotsionaalne. hea südamlik ja vajalik lugemine eriti jõuluajal, Un'inaspettata, meravigliosa sorpresa!
Il romanzo scritto dalla grande Astrid Lindgren nele portato in Italia da Ziliotto per la prima volta nel, ha come protagonista Rasmus, un ragazzino orfano che, una sera d'estate dopo lunghe valutazioni decide di scappare dall'orfanotrofio per cercare una famiglia che voglia tenerlo con sé.
L'avventura è ovviamente dietro l'angolo quando incontra per caso il vagabondo OscardelParadiso, un adulto che gira di villaggio in villaggio cercando e spesso riuscendo a farsi dare del denaro e da mangiare e da bere, canticchiando canzoncine e suonando la fisarmonica.
Rasmus, pieno dentusiasmo, in attesa di riuscire a trovare una famiglia chiede e ottiene di poter girare con luomo guadagnandosi da vivere in quel modo.
Come Lindgren ci ha abituati, in questo viaggio Rasmus conoscerà a realtà della vita rappresentata anche da pericoli, dalla cattiveria umana ma anche dalle emozioni, dal gusto dellavventura, dalla generosità della gente e sperimenta limportanza di mettere in gioco se stessi per raggiungere i propri ideali.
Colpi di scena, mistero, divertimento sono gli ingredienti principali che rendono il viaggio del protagonista avvincente, emozionante e originale e meritevole di essere letto e amato.
Per un pubblico daiaianni, Dit verhaal speelt zich af in Zweden en het is geschreven door Astrid Lindgren, Haar stijl is zo mooi, zo gemoedelijk en tegelijkertijd ook heel avontuurlijk, De gevoelens van Rasmus beschrijft ze heel herkenbaar voor jonge lezers, maar ook volwassen lezers beleven plezier aan haar boeken, Er zitten namelijk nogal wat wijsheden verstopt tussen de regels,
sitelinkLees verder op mijn blog : If you are looking for an accurate review of this book, then you need to hear the voice of myyrold daughter, who simply devoured this book and declared that she loved it! Why She couldn't put it down! She loved Rasmus and his friend, Paradise Oscar, and was held in the grip of the actionfilled scenes, the suspense, and of course the thoroughly satisfying ending which she said was her favourite part! Of course I won't ruin the book for you by giving it away, but I will say that I agree wholeheartedly with my daughter that the ending is perfect! The book is written in a wonderfully engaging way, and I can see why it has survived throughout the years and has been rereleased for a new generation.
Sometimes I find that classic stories don't resonate with children today, but that is definitely not the case with this story, Readers agedwill be fully engaged in the story, and I am sure that many adults are going to enjoy reconnecting with this story again as well.
I myself loved the adventure, the humour, and the great characters that grace the pages of this book,
I'm not sure how I've missed reading this book up until now, "Rasmus and the Vagabond" is a timeless children story that readers, young and old, are going to love! My daughter and I highly recommend this story and award itout ofstars.

I was not required to write a positive review, All opinions expressed are my own or those of my family, I'm including this disclaimer in accordance with FTC Guidelines and Regulations, As a child I devoured Lindren's Pipi Longstocking series, I fell in love with the quirky character and vivid, playful writing, I expected no less from Rasmus and the Vagabond, and was not disappointed,
In Rasmus and the Vagabond Astrid Lindgren explores the innocent angst of a young boy, his unlikely companion, and a journey that changes them both.
Rasmus is ayear old orphan who, though well cared for, has not experienced much love or affection, He longs for a mother and father of his own, but comes to believe that most parents only want a curly haired girl.
Fed up with life at the orphanage, and sure that he can make a better go of it alone, Rasmus escapes,
Almost immediately he realizes that life outside the orphanage is tough, . . until he has the good fortune of crossing paths with a tramp named Paradise Oscar, the selfproclaimed " best friend of God", The two unlikely companions get into all kinds of scraps during their travels,
. . and in the process, grow quite fond of each other,
This is an enjoyable book that I highly recommend, Rasmus is a very likable character, and the reader is drawn into his innocent longings and observations, Rasmus' desire for a family of his own is a universal theme that tugs at the heart strings of all ages, Oscar is a quirky character who does not reveal much about himself, However, his kindness and affection for Rasmus eventually wins the affections of the reader,
The plot is moved forward by a series of events involving Rasmus, Oscar, and a pair of thieves, Each chapter leaves the reader wondering what will happen next and yearning for more, The adventure is exciting and action packed, . . appealing especially to any boy who has imaginatively played out a cops and robbers scene,
My only criticism is that I feel the end came rather abruptly, It is a surprising and satisfying ending, however, I would have liked for it to have drawn out a bit more,
I read this book with my three boys, ages,, and, It both captivated and delighted all of us, I would recommend reading this book with your children of all ages, or just for your own pleasure! Rasmus på farten handler om en forældreløs drengs store eventyr.
Når man er en børnehjemsdreng på ni år med glat hår, som ingen forældre vil adoptere, så kan man næsten lige så godt være død, synes Rasmus.
Men så får han en god ide, Man kan jo stikke af fra børnehjemmet og den strenge forstanderinde, Man kan tage ud i verden og prøve at finde en far og mor, der gerne vil have en, Hvis der ikke er nogle søde piger med krøllet hår i nærheden, så vil de måske tage Rasmus På farten møder Rasmus vagabonden ParadisOskar, og de to følges ad videre ud på landevejene hele sommeren og lige ind i en masse spændende begivenheder og mysterier.
Man taip smagu kojoms, pasakė jis žiūrėdamas, kaip pro tarpupirščius sunkiasi purvas, Ir man visam smagu.
Privaloma visiems vaikams, o profilaktiškai ir suaugusiems,
sitelinkwww. kaskaityti. lt Wiederlektüre Bücherregal der Verwandtschaft, ich hatte alles vergessen, Hervorragende Geschichte, ein Stern extra für schöne Formulierungen, This is a cute book, Theres Good guys and bad guys and a happy ending, Great for younger readers. Vaikučių dar neturiu, tačiau mano lentynose knygų jiems apstu, Ir pati jas mėgstu skaityti ir kaupiu savotišką bibliotekėlę ateičiai, Ir jei manęs paklaustų kokias knygas ten dedu, trumpiausias mano atsakymas būtų visas "Garnelio" leidyklos knygas vaikams, Žinoma, visų dar neturiu, tačiau kolekciją vis papildau, "Garnelis" leidžia tas knygas, kurias pati skaičiau vaikystėje, Tas knygas, dėl kurių mano meilė literatūrai vis augo ir taip išbujojo, Tai Astridos Lindgren, Roal Dahl, P, L. Travers, Tove Jansson, A. A. Milne knygos. Jų knygos, visos iki vienos, kupinos gėrio, šilumos, tikrųjų vertybių, džiaugsmo, Visko, ką norėčiau savo vaikams perduoti puslapiais, Naujausias mano kolekcijos papildymas "Rasmusas Klajūnas", Man užtenka vien šios autorės pavardę ant viršelio pamatyti, kad visos dvejonės "Ar patiks" išnyktų,
Rasmusas, kartu su būriu kitų vaikų gyvena našlaičių prieglaudoje, Be jokios šilumos augantis vaikas prisimena kiekvieną kartą kada jį kas paglostė ar geru žodžiu pavadino, Rasmusas svajoja turėti tėvus, tačiau žino, kad jo neišsirinks niekada, mat prieglaudose žmonės ieško tik mažų, garbanotų mergaičių.
Rasmusas nusprendžia nebesėdėti rankų sudėjęs, o pats susirasti sau tėvus, Naktį, paslapčiomis, jis pabėga iš prieglaudos ir atsitiktinai sutinka Oskarą, Oskaras keliauja nuo namų pre namų, už maistą ar kelias monetas nudirbą darbų, padainuoja, prausiasi upėje ir taip keliauja po pasaulį.
Geraširdis klajūnas priima Rasmusą po savo sparnu, Tačiau čia dar toli gražu ne didžiausias Rasmuso nuotykis, . .
Nuostabi knyga. Perskaičiau per kelias valandas ir braukiau ašarą, Aš esu tokia tikra, kad jei nuo mažens vaikučiai skaitytų tokias istorijas, ir meilė knygoms, ir meilė žmonėms, gerumas jų širdelėse dar labiau vešėtų.
Tai vertybėmis turtingos knygos, puoselėjančios gražiausias sielos spalvas ir tyrumą, Tai ne tos, kurias vaikas perskaitys, pamirš ir jokio gero nepasiims, Aišku, geriau ir tokia, nei jokios, bet renkantis Astridos ar kitų minėtų autorių kūrinius, gali būti tikras, jog duodi vaikui ne tik knygą.
Duodi vaizduotės, jautrumo, atjautos, supratingumo pamokų, O kalbant konkrečiai apie "Rasmusą klajūną", čia gausu ir nuotykių, ir pokalbių ir gilesnių minčių, kuriomis tikrai mėgausis ir suaugęs žmogus.
Man labai patiko knygos vertimas: palikta tokių senesnių, dabar nebe taip dažnai vartojamų žodžių, Nuostabi, nuostabi, nuostabi knyga. .
