Snipp, Snapp, Snurr

Snipp, Snapp, Snurr is the name of fictional triplets depicted in a series of children's books by author/illustrator Maj Lindman (1886-1972).[1] The triplets, all boys with blond hair, live in Sweden and have light-hearted misadventures. The series of books was created in the 1920s in Sweden and then printed in English in the United States from the 1930s. Lindman also started a series of books featuring three sisters, Flicka, Ricka, Dicka, with similar themes. A 1936 New York Times review of the book Snipp Snapp Snurr and the Yellow Sled cited the Snipp, Snapp, Snurr series as "popular with the little children".[2]

The series of books continued until approximately 1960. Some of Lindman's stories were included in a series of compilations called The Best of Children's Books.[3]
