Biography
Thomas Funck naît le 26 octobre 1919 à Linköping, dans l'Östergötland, en Suède. Il a le titre de freiherr (titre de noblesse suédois équivalent au titre de baron). Il conçoit les premières histoires de Kalle Stropp et Grodan Boll pour des émissions de radio dans les années 1940. À partir de 1954, Funck fait lui-même les voix de tous les personnages, en s'accompagnant à la guitare pour les effets sonores. Il publie ensuite une bande dessinée dont le dessin est de Nils Egerbrandt, puis, à partir de 1955, une série de livres pour la jeunesse illustrés par Einar Norelius. En 1956 est réalisé un film musical mettant en scène ces personnages, Kalle Stropp, Grodan Boll och deras vänner, tourné en prises de vue réelles, en partie avec des acteurs qui mimaient et en partie avec des marionnettes ; Funck double lui-même tous les personnages.Dans les années 1970, les personnages apparaissent de nouveau à la radio et suscitent à nouveau l'intérêt du public. Deux films d'animation mettant en scène Kalle Stropp et Grodan Boll : Kalle Stropp och Grodan Boll (ou Kalle Stropp och Grodan Boll räddar Hönan) en 1987, puis Kalle Stropp och Grodan Boll på svindlande äventyr en 1991 (le second film est diffusé en France sous le titre Froggy et Charlie au pays des pommes de pin)
Outre son travail de concepteur d'émissions de radio et d'écrivain pour la jeunesse, il travaille également travaillé comme scénariste et comme acteur de doublage pour les adaptations de ses fictions en films d'animation.

Something strange has been spotted over the tree tops in the forest where Charlie Strapp and Froggy Ball live, and Sheet-Niklas quickly builds a Binoculars to examine it. It turns out to be an emergency signal and the two friends together with Sheet-Niklas and The Parrot set out on an expedition to resque whoever is sending the signal.While crossing a stream, though, Froggy Ball falls down a small waterfall and ends up in a dark Cave. While looking for a way out he stumbles upon the Isopoda people who live there and quickly befriends King Cone And Queen Cone. In the meantime Charlie Strapp has met up with Princess Cone Green, a young and impulsive female cone, and soon joins Froggy Ball and the others. It turns out that the Cone people are the ones who have been sending the signal, and when elevated up to a tree top Charlie Strapp and Froggy Ball see a helicopter landing, with three evil businessman from the company Tonto-Turbo who are planning to tear down a huge part of the forest. When the businessman leave, Cone Green ends up being with them on the helicopter. Charlie Strapp and Froggy Ball hang on to the landing skids, but eventually fall off high up in the air over a lake. Luckily it turns out that Charlie's tailcoat can be used as a parachute, and Froggy Ball even learns how to steer it by pulling the tails so they can land on a steam boat. On the boat Sheet-Niklas and The Parrot succeed to locate them so they can join them again.The boat takes them to Gripsholm Castle, which turns out to be where the businessmen were heading too, as their full plan is to move the old castle to the cleared space in the forest and turn it into a hyper modern luxury hotel, replacing most of its walls and floors with glass. This will be made possible by hacking the authorities' computers with a special program they are keeping on a floppy disk. Cone Green, who has been hiding in a briefcase, tries to steal the disk but fails. Instead she, Charlie Strapp and Froggy Ball end up on the bottom of the castle well, but are soon resqued by Sheet-Niklas who has the ability to fly. In the meantime the men from Tonto-Turbo leave again in their helicopter. Sheet-Niklas calculates that they are heading to Ericsson Globe, before he flies back to the cone forest with Cone Green. In the city, Charlie Strapp and Froggy Ball walk up to Ericsson Globe and confront them, but are simply laughed at and disregarded. The businessmen then head off to the Nobel party where they have been invited. The two friends, left in the office, discover that the men forgot to bring the floppy disk with them. They try to find out which one of the disks at the office it is that is the real one, and while trying one in the computer the frog ends up inside of a computer game and Charlie has to control him into safety with the joystick. Soon after that, one of the men returns - and takes the right disk with him.Unable to get into the Stockholm City Hall, Froggy Ball is ready to give up when a submarine appears. Out of it come Sheet-Niklas and Cone Green who have returned. Through the kitchen they smuggle themselves into the party by hiding in the dessert - an ice cream parade. When inside Froggy Ball holds a speech where he accuses the men from Tonto-Turbo in public. The atmosphere becomes confused, and the men capture the two friends and decide to get rid of them once and for all. But then suddenly The Fox, who had previously only been seen in a short cameo in the very beginning of the story, arrives and causes disruption. While the men are distracted everybody can escape, and Cone Green steals the floppy disk. After a wild chase though, the men recapture the disk, but only to see an army of cones arrive and chase them into the water, where also the disk is dropped by The Parrot.Back in the cone forest the frog is awarded a prize from the hands of the cone Minister of Flower Pots and the businessman are given a new profession - shaving sheep, which they seem to enjoy.

It turns out, though, that the kidnappers might not be purely evil after all: they work as stage magicians and just happen to need a hen for a trick they are performing.
