Gifts for the children in Oakland

I bought a lot of things for the children in Oakland. This way I will give them some Swedish culture too. The books I got are very famous childrens books in Sweden and written in the 1940 and 1950. My parents read the books for me when I was a baby, and even my grandmothers read it for my parents. One is about a really strong and powerful girl, Pippi Longstocking and one is about Emil, a crazy kid in Sweden a long time ago. The last one is very poetic and rhymes, but still beautiful and very creative (there are wholes in every page so you can see images of how the story is getting more exciting in the next page). It is about the Moomin troll and my brother wanted to name me after a character in that book, "little My". Luckily, my parents went for Ebba. They are very old, but still very good. I also got big lego blocks for smaller kids. Max told me they wanted that for the kids, because they love to build things. I hope that they will enjoy them, and I hope I can personally give my gifts to the kids in Oakland.
