Berts dagbok

by Anders Jacobsson, Sören Olsson · first published 1987

In Ned's Head (Swedish: Berts dagbok, lit. 'Bert's diary'), is a diary novel, written by Anders Jacobsson and Sören Olsson and originally published in 1987. It tells the story of Swedish fifth-grader Bert Ljung during the spring term from 14 January to 4 June the year he turns 12. Being the first of the Bert Diaries, the term Berts dagbok has later also become a term for the entire Bert Universe. Created to be older and tougher than Sune, the idea of writing as a diary novel was inspired by Barbro Lindgren's Världshemligt, but during the Gothenburg Book Fair a person appeared, stating the concept had been taken from The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13¾.
