Super Grandpa - David Schwartz - Bog

Bag om Super Grandpa

Gustaf Håkansson was sixty-six years old. In 1951, he was barred from joining the Tour of Sweden due to his age. He participated unofficially, riding his bicycle over 1,000 miles and, to the delight of his countrymen, finished first. Award-winning children's author David M. Schwartz calls him "Super Grandpa" and brings his historic bike ride to life. Schwartz's zesty narration, enhanced by sound effects and Swedish fiddle music, will captivate listeners ages 4 and up. Older audiences too will cherish this story of a figure who shattered stereotypes about the elderly, and inspired generations to pursue their dreams.
