Whether he’s running his little sister up a flagpole, or trying to escape after getting locked in a shed, Emil’s adventures never stop. Hens, dogs, little sisters – and adults – all flee his path. But Emil doesn’t mean to be bad, it’s just that trouble – and fun! – follow him wherever he goes.

It was about a person who always used to be naughty. He didn't want himself to be like that. He always used to hide somewhere and it was very complicated to find him. It takes a bunch of time. When he is going to start school, he might be good. His parents and siblings always like how he is already.

I loved reading about Emil’s mischiefs. My favourite was when Emil hid in the cupboard, ate all the sausages and fell asleep.

The book was about a mischievous boy from Sweden called Emil. My favourite character was Emil himself. I would recommend it.

I thought it was quite funny because when Emil's sister,Ida, wanted to see Mariannelund from a certain distance,Emil hoisted little Ida up the flagstaff.I liked Emil the best because he is a cheeky monkey annd gets up to mischief just like my brother.Yes I will recommend it to someone else because its a good,heart warming book.
