Ture Sventon latający detektyw

The first volume of adventures of the famous flying detective in a new edition - for the first time in Poland with original illustrations by the Swedish master Sven Hemmel.

Ture Sventon is arguably the smartest detective in Sweden. Unfortunately, only he knows about it, and the bell at his office door usually announces the shoe seller. One day, however, everything changes: Sventon unexpectedly receives a contract to solve an intriguing riddle and acquires a flying carpet. Will the unusual item help him catch the bad guys?

''I inherited two rugs from my father,'' repeated the stranger, ''and here is one of them.''
''Yes, I see,'' Sventon said.
''Few people own two carpets,'' the stranger continued, ignoring Sventon's words.
''Oh, I know people who have seven or eight.''
''Undoubtedly,'' replied the man with unfathomable eyes. - But they don't have flying carpets. He bowed almost to the ground.

The series of humorous books about the adventures of Ture Sventon is a classic of a detective novel for children - in Sweden he is a character no less known than Sherlock Holmes.
