Summary "Lapsia" by Teuvo Pakkala is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. The book revolves around the lives, thoughts, and experiences of children, capturing their innocence, mischief, and the struggles they face in various situations. Each story portrays different aspects of childhood, providing insights into their relationships with family and friends. At the start of the collection, the opening story "Häiritty jouluilo" introduces us to a young boy named Jaakko, who is excited about the upcoming Christmas and has secretly prepared a gift for his mother. The narrative portrays his inner thoughts and the playful interactions he has with his sisters, who are oblivious to his secret. As Jaakko navigates his feelings of pride and the pressure of maintaining the surprise, moments of jealousy and sibling rivalry emerge, showcasing the complexities of childhood emotions. This sets the stage for the themes of joy, secret-keeping, and the sometimes tumultuous nature of familial relationships that permeate throughout the collection.
