Alfie Atkins (Alfons Åberg in the original Swedish) is a series of children's books, written and illustrated by Swedish author Gunilla Bergström. Alfie is an ordinary little kid who lives with his father in an apartment complex somewhere in Sweden. He goes to kindergarten (later elementary school), plays with friends, gets certain problems with going to bed and other everyday life things young children deal with.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In addition to Alfie and his dad, the books also feature several recurring characters, including his grandmother, his cat Puzzle ("Pyssel" in Swedish), his friends Victor and Milla, and his "secret friend" Malcolm ("Mållgan" in the original Swedish, "Moggie" in the English TV version).The books have seen several adaptations to film, audio dramas, theatre plays and TV. The best known adaptation is probably the animated one — sixteen short cartoons based on the books were produced by STV in the 1980s and 1990s, and thirteen more by MAIPO in 2013, along with a theatrical animated movie called Hocus Pocus, Alfie Atkins.Not to be confused with the film Alfie or its remake, or the NSFW webcomic. | |

Comic-Book Time: The first Alfie Atkins book came out in 1972, and the last one in 2012. Over the course of 40 years in real time, Alfie has aged from being 4 years old in the earliest books to 6-7 years old in the latest ones. | |

Bedsheet Ghost | |
Alfie Atkins / int_23b059ec | comment |
Bedsheet Ghost: Literally, in Who's Scaring Alfie Atkins?, Alfie has been freaking himself out the whole book due to his fear of the dark, and he sees what he thinks are ghosts on the balcony, which later turn out to be bedsheets hanging out to dry. | |

Imaginary Friend | |
Alfie Atkins / int_7ad0e492 | comment |
Imaginary Friend: Malcolm is one of the most famous examples of an imaginary friend in Swedish kids' literature — despite only being in a few books. | |

Cheerful Child | |
Alfie Atkins / int_d53ad027 | comment |
Cheerful Child: Alfie, for the most part, is upbeat, good-natured and reasonably well-behaved — like any kid, he has his Bratty Half-Pint moments, or moments where he lets his emotions get the better of him, but these moments are fairly few and far in-between. | |
