Sune på bilsemester is a fun and chaotic family adventure that brings back the beloved character Sune in a classic road-trip setup. This time, Sune and the Andersson family travel through Europe toward a village in South Tyrol, where his parents once spent their honeymoon. Of course, with Sune involved, the journey quickly becomes much more complicated than a simple holiday.

Story & Humor

Sune’s dream girl appears in the destination village, while the family also gets mixed up in a plan involving an artist whose signature could make them rich.
The question “What could possibly go wrong?” is basically the heart of the book—and the answer is: almost everything.
Characters
Sune remains charming, dramatic, and funny, especially in situations involving girls and family embarrassment. The Andersson family adds much of the comedy, with each family member bringing their own quirks to the road trip.
