Description: Children's story about Elvis, a boy who was named after his mother's idol, Elvis Presley. She has all his records. But Elvis Karlsson is stone hoarse and never sings, so mother is a little disappointed. And there's dad too. Dad might be playing football and trying to teach Elvis, 'That's All Right, Mama'. Except the names used for the character, the book has no further relation to Elvis. Maria Gripe (1923-2007) wrote 38 books and is a well-known and beloved youth author. Her books have been translated into 29 languages. Elvis Karlsson was the first of five books about Elvis. The other books in the series are Elvis! Elvis!, The Real Elvis, Being Elvis and Just Elvis.
