Summary

The book «Can You Whistle, Johanna?» tells the story of the friendship between two boys, Ulf and Berra, and their quest to find a grandfather for Berra. Berra, who doesn't have a grandfather, envies Ulf, who does. Ulf suggests they find a grandfather for Berra at a retirement home. There, they meet an elderly man named Nils, who agrees to become Berra's grandfather. Together, they spend time doing various activities that grandfathers do with their grandchildren: fishing, walking, and talking. The story touchingly shows how family and love can be found in the most unexpected places.
