Lurituri lives in the radio and helps put things straight when nobody's looking. The spoons and forks must be in their own places, and who else will catch the wayward shoes at night?

Lurituri doesn't let anybody see him -- except for children like Kvidretoppen, who are too young to go to school, because who else should help him untangle telephone wires and go hunting for treasures in the couch!

This used to be a firm favourite when we were kids - to the point that Dad had to insist on reading at least one other book between each time he read us this one X-D Something made me think of it recently, so I felt like rereading it. It was still cute. A lot simpler than I remembered it (duh :-P ), and a lot more obvious that Lurituri was just a figment of Kvidretoppen's imagination, but charming all the same -- and at 81 pages, a super-quick read!

I'd forgotten that the sheet music for all the songs had been included at the end. I can't remember any of them off the top of my head, so will have to try to play some of them, to see if they ring a bell once I hear them.
