Anja about football!

"In junior high school, I started coaching my little sister's soccer team, and the idea was born that all the funny - and sometimes serious - situations we were involved in should be turned into fiction. Now I write about real stars, which is fun because I can be inspired by their experiences
and personality too.”

Anja about Flip the ball, Linnéa!

"I've always loved skating but didn't know much about bandy before I started writing, because it hardly exists here in Scania where I live. Now I know a lot, and hope that the book will inspire more people to try bandy.”
