Laban and Labolina Discover Opposites

By Inger and Lasse Sandberg

Hot or cold, dry or wet? Learn about opposites with Laban and Labolina!

One day when Labolina woke up, she was in the opposite mood. When Laban and Little Prince had a running competition, she was as slow as a snail. When it was raining, she would rather stay outside and get wet than cuddle up and get warm in front of the fire in the castle. Oh oh, sighed the ghost family, what are we going to do now?

Learn with Laban are newly written and newly drawn stories based on Inger and Lasse Sandberg’s beloved characters. The books have an educational structure and help language development, all the while being fun to read together.
