Did you know that in Sweden, the new 20 Kronor bill will be light purple and feature a picture of Pippi Longstocking creator Astrid Lindgren? And there will soon be a blue 100 kronor bill with Greta Garbo’s portrait!
Here in the United States, authors of children’s literature and movie stars aren’t people we’d ever think to associate with paper money. But I kind of really love it, don’t you?

I once found that 20 kronor note at an airport! I’ve still got it as, well, I love Astrid Lindgren’s books and on the reverse side the note has Nils Holgerson, I used to love that story as a child!
