Early Learning

Hedvig gehört nicht mehr zu den Kleinen - jetzt geht sie schon in die 2. Klasse! Aber über die Sommerferien ist etwas mit ihr und allen anderen Mädchen aus der Klasse passiert - das Pferdefieber ist ausgebrochen! Nichts wünscht Hedvig sich sehnlicher als ein Pferd... doch was ihr tierlieber Vater schließlich anschleppt, ist Max-Olov, ein struppiger, magerer, jähzorniger Esel! Unmöglich kann Hedvig den anderen Mädchen in der Klasse davon erzählen und so wird aus dem Esel in Hedvigs Fantasie im Handumdrehen ein Pferd.

Hedvig wohnt nicht am Ende der Welt, sie wohnt dahinter. Was für ein Glück, dass sie endlich in die erste Klasse kommt - denn plötzlich ist ihr Leben voller Abenteuer! Hedvig hat jede Menge verrückte Einfälle, die manchmal ganz anders ausgehen, als sie sich das vorgestellt hat... Aber sie macht auch ihr erstes Schwimmabzeichen, verschenkt ihr kostbares Lebkuchenhaus, verleibt sich unsterblich in einen Einsiedlerkrebs - und lernt in der Schule Linda kennen, die bald ihre beste Freundin wird...

Hurra! Hedvig ist nun schon in der Dritten. Und wie aufregend - ein neues Kind kommt in ihre Klasse! Mit ihren dunklen Locken und Wimpern, dicht wie Borsten einer Schuhbürste, sieht die Neue aus wie eine Prinzessin. Hand in Hand stolziert Hedvig mit ihr ins Klassenzimmer. Aber dann erlebt Hedvig eine Überraschung, wie sie größer nicht sein könnte.
