MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1941*.

The character of Smørbukk (means Butterball in English and is slang for a chubby person) started in the series as a youngster, but has since 'grown' to be a teenager, which he still is. He is a practical boy, who likes to help out whenever he can, although he experiences a few mishaps from time to time. Smørbukk's given name is unknown.

* Smørbukk is originally based on a Norwegian folktale about a boy who wins over a troll through his cunningness. The tale was first published in 1841.
