clacke: inhibited exhausted pixie dream boy 🇸🇪ðŸ‡ðŸ‡°ðŸ’™ðŸ’›Show any Swedish millennial an illustration from one of these books and they will know immediately where it's from.
"Så funkar det!" (that's how it works), "Så funkar du!" (that's how you work) and "Så funkar världen!" (that's how the world works) were everywhere. In your school break room, in your school library and your public library, maybe in your home. And they were genuinely great books, encouraging curiosity and providing answers to how everyday things and phenomena work.
The original for "SÃ¥ funkar det!" was "What makes it go?" and Joe Kaufman was a winner of multiple awards, but neither he nor the book has an entry in the English Wikipedia, and the Swedish entry for "SÃ¥ funkar det!" doesn't even mention the other books, so I don't know their English titles. Did they even have English-language originals or were they only made for the Swedish market?
