When Mischief Came to Town

Katrina Nannestad

In 1911, ten-year-old Inge moves to her grandmother’s home on a remote Danish island after her mother dies. Grief does not quiet her spirited, trouble-prone nature, and she gradually comes to know the grandmother who initially seems stern. Inge finds that her grandmother has warmth beneath that exterior and may once have been much like her. A boy named Klaus, who carries troubles of his own, helps Inge settle into school and island life.
