Boktipset
Boktipset is a children's literature program running on Swedish public television company Sveriges Television 1976–1989. The program was usually about three to five minutes long, but occasionally the author of the featured book would be interviewed in a fifteen-minute segment. About two hundred episodes were produced. The shorter episodes were frequently aired between shows, without listing in the official programme schedule. Literature scholar Stefan Mählqvist (1943-2024) hosted the show from a rainbow colored couch and read an excerpt from the book of the day. Mählqvist came up with the idea for the show while working at Svenska barnboksinstitutet. On busy days he recorded up to almost a dozen episodes a day, employing costume changes between each episode to reset the mood. The theme song, "The Swimming Song" featured on the album '' Attempted Mustache'' (1973) by Loudon Wainwright III, was hummed at the beginning of each episode. The show was popular at the time and attract ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Children's Literature
Children's literature or juvenile literature includes stories, books, magazines, and poems that are created for children. In addition to conventional literary genres, modern children's literature is classified by the intended age of the reader, ranging from picture books for the very young to young adult fiction for those nearing maturity. Children's literature can be traced to traditional stories like fairy tales, which have only been identified as children's literature since the eighteenth century, and songs, part of a wider oral tradition, which adults shared with children before publishing existed. The development of early children's literature, before printing was invented, is difficult to trace. Even after printing became widespread, many classic "children's" tales were originally created for adults and later adapted for a younger audience. Since the fifteenth century much literature has been aimed specifically at children, often with a moral or religious message. Childr ...
