Ekholm, Jan-Olof: - Jan-Olof Ekholm (1931-2020) is a Swedish author of over fifty titles, with his debut making an appearance in 1958.

After that, Ekholm penned a four-part series about a retired teacher fighting crime (Fröken Stål) before writing the much-loved Hooray for Ludvig XIV.

Jan-Olof returned to writing children's books and easy reading for teens in the late '90s, inspired by his grandchildren. With his early children's books being re-released, he enjoyed a revival of the popularity of his titles. With an incredible ability to write characters navigating sticky, complex situations with grace and humor make his work a pleasure to read. Jan-Olof Ekholm's children's novels are par to none and still classics in many homes. Throughout the years, his titles have been translated into English, German, Russian, French, Norwegian, Danish and Polish.
