Book Description Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Frontis Drawing (illustrator). First UK Edition. Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Green cloth with bright gilt titling on spine.No Marks or Inscriptions. Translated from Swedish by Joan Tate. Full page frontis drawing. 118 pages clean and tight. ULF MALMGREN was born at Halstahammar, Sweden, in 1937. He studied at the University of Uppsala, where he obtained a degree in literature, Scandinavian languages, and English, and then taught Swedish and English for four years before going on to study oboe in the soloist class of the Musikaliska Akademien in Stockholm. When the Leaves Begin to Fall is his first book, and one of his reasons for writing it was that he wanted to show a kind of life and interrelations within that kind of life that were both growing completely forgotten, obsolete, or even denied. It won the 1968 Debutant Prize of the Foundation for the Promotion of Literature. JOAN TATE is both a considerable children's writer and one of the most distinguished translators in Britain. She has translated a large number of books from Scandinavian languages, and feels that there is a realism in Scandinavian children's books in general from which children of other countries can benefit.
