Can You Whistle, Johanna? is a funny, sensitive illustrated chapter book about two boys searching for a grandfather—there are plenty at the retirement home—and friendship across generations. It is an international award-winner and a classic in many countries.

Why doesn't Berra have a grandfather? And how can he get one? Ulf suggests that there are plenty of old men at the retirement home. Berra and Ulf go there together to find one—ideally one who eats pig's trotters, invites you to tea, and can teach you to whistle.

A funny, sensitive, illustrated chapter book about a friendship across generations. Stark's writing covers every emotion, sometimes in the same sentence.
