When Emil got his head stuck in the soup tureen

On this day, it’s meat soup for dinner in Katthult. Everyone thinks it’s delicious, especially Emil, who sticks his entire head in the soup tureen to get the last drop. But his head gets stuck and the family has to go to the doctor in Mariannelund to free him.

It’s such a pity, today of all days when there is to be a party in Katthult, and the highly regarded Mrs Petrell is coming to visit. The flag is hoisted when she arrives, but not just any flag... You see, little Ida wanted to know if you could see all the way to Mariannelund from the top of the flagpole, and Emil, kind as he is, of course helped her to find out.
