Her first children's book was Den eldande raude beveren from 1976, illustrated by Kjersti Scheen.[1] The book contains stories about the little girl Ragnhild, which first appeared in the radio show for small children, Barnetimen for de minste[no]. Ragnhild lives in a rural society, and both her mother and father are busy with work on their farm and in the forest, while her elder sister is a schoolgirl, and Ragnhild has to play much for herself.[2] Her second book about Ragnhild, Den rare dagen (1977) earned her the Nynorsk barnelitteraturpris[no].[2] Further books in the series are Ut å reise (1978), and Syttande mai (1979).[2] The children's books, except for the first, were illustrated by Borghild Rud.[1]
She wrote the textbook Bøker for barn – analyse – vurdering – formidling in 1979, jointly with Olav Imenes.[1]
