Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Kalle Anka & C:o (Donald Duck & Co) is a Swedish weekly Disney comics magazine, published by Egmont.[2] The 52-page comic, launched in September 1948, is the overall best-selling Swedish comic magazine.[1] In the early years, the comic printed translated stories from the United States, including Walt Disney's Comics and Stories, Four Color and other Dell Comics Disney titles. As Disney comics production waned in the United States in the 1960s, Kalle Anka began printing more European-produced content, from Scandinavia and Italy. Now, Kalle Anka & C:o and its Scandinavian sister editions Anders And & Co. (Denmark) and Donald Duck & Co (Norway) are identical, apart from the language.
