I would like to tell about Karlsson, my favourite character from a famous book written by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. Karlsson is a short, stout, overconfident man, who lives in a small house on the roof of an ordinary apartment building.
Karlsson has a button on his belly. When he presses this button, it activates a little propeller on his back. Thanks to this he can fly.
Karlsson made friends with Lillebror, a little boy who lived in one of the flats. His parents love him very much, however Lillebror often feels lonely. Karlsson and Lillebror became best friends.
We don't know how old Karlsson is, but his jokes and games seem to be very funny for little children. Karlsson is very imaginative. A lot of ideas cross his mind all the time. He knows how to entertain the little boy.
Karlsson is a real expert when it comes to playing a trick. Despite all this, I would say that Karlsson is a positive character. He supports Lillebror, he is always there when the boy needs him, he listens to him and helps him a lot
