Cows On Ice & Owls In The Bog: The Weird and Wonderful World of Scandinavian Sayings

This witty, enlightening book explains over 50 Scandi phrases, with gorgeous color illustrations throughout.

Scandinavians may be cooler and more stylish than the rest of the world, but they have some very bizarre sayings. Take the Swedish 'Skita i det blå skåpet', which roughly translates as : 'You've done a crap in the blue cupboard' ("You've messed things up now'). And in Norway, if you're slow on the uptake, the locals would suspect you were 'born behind a brown cheese' ('Å være født bak en brunost').
