So the story goes from one obstacle to another until the boys finally manage to overcome and get some butter for their bread. And there is no fresh grass to give Blossom because. But the cow, Blossom, has had no fresh grass to eat, so she can’t give milk. So Mother sends them out to get some milk from Aunt Annie’s cow. The boys long for some butter to spread on their mother’s fresh bread. In this particular Snipp Snapp Snurr adventure not too much happens. I think also the foreignness of these little boys growing up in a village in Sweden appealed to me. It was intriguing to me that you could have three brothers (or sisters, Flicka, Rick and Dicka) who looked alike and were born at the same time.
I loved the idea of triplets (and twins). I loved this series of picture books featuring the Swedish triplets, Snipp, Snapp, and Snurr when I was a kid of a girl.
I just took a Picture Book Break from library work to re-read a childhood favorite picture book, Snipp, Snapp, Snurr and the Buttered Bread by Maj LIndman.
