- Nico’s coming to play today, says mum.
- He’s not allowed to borrow the squirrel, says Sally. It’s mine.

Nico’s not allowed to borrow the train, the parking garage, the TV or the toilet either. And what if he wants to borrow Sally’s mum?! He’s definitely not allowed to do that!

”Possessiveness goes to some (il)logical extremes in this highly amusing Swedish import… A paean to the realization that while sharing may be caring, it’s also more fun!”

– Kirkus Reviews

”There is an immediate familiarity with the situations and the exaggerations are entertaining for both young and old. The story is an amusing study of children’s development when it comes to letting go of possessiveness in favor of group play. Charlotte Ramel’s skillfully executed, and comically expressive illustrations don’t hold back and are in tune with the effective text. 5 out of 5.”
