Life According to Dani — page 3 — run over So Dani picked them up and moved them out of the way That day she saved the lives of nine worms and four snails But only a couple of hours later an unbelievable thing happened her own father was run over Why hadn’t someone turned up to save him Why didn’t the driver toot or something He was all right but he has to stay in the hospital for several months Dani ended up spending the summer break with Ella her best friend in the world She went with her to an island in the sea 2

Life According to Dani — page 4 — On the island they played all day long and built huts and fished and swam They spend all their time playing when they get to gether It starts as soon as they see each other They were having so much fun on the island that Dani hardly had time to miss her father They went swimming five six or seven times a day Their swimsuits were always wet and having to be hung on the washing line 3

Life According to Dani — page 5 — Sometimes they didn’t bother with swimsuits and went skinny-dipping Like the water sprite in old stories who sits naked on a stone playing the violin Anyone who hears him goes a bit crazy and starts danc ing Ella also plays the violin Her mother usually makes her work on her pieces half an hour a day but how could she when Dani was there and they had so many games to play Playing was their most important thing 4

Life According to Dani — page 6 — They watched wild animals too like the fox that sat on the cliff sometimes looking out to sea Or they spied on the moose swimming through the water 5
