Grigor Vitez • Tomislav Torjanac, ill.<br />

Kako živi Antuntun [How Antuntun lives]<br />

Mozaik knjiga, 2009 • ISBN 978-953-14-0656-7<br />

The book is based on Grigor Vitez’s anthological<br />

poem which many generations of readers<br />

enjoyed for over a hundred years. The poem<br />

carries a strong message of accepting differences<br />

among people which is important to develop<br />

in an early age, because Antuntun was kindhearted<br />

and a very special person, different<br />

from all. Perhaps he sometimes looks weird<br />

or behaves in a way that no one expects or<br />

performs in the real <strong>world</strong>, but that in fact is his<br />

value. Imaginative illustrations of good-hearted<br />

and unusual Antuntun with lots of funny scenes<br />

represent delight for the eyes and soul of children<br />

and adults.<br />

Slikovnica je nastala prema antologijskoj pjesmi<br />

Grigora Viteza u čijim stihovima već preko stotinu<br />

godina uživaju generacije čitatelja. Pjesma nosi<br />

snažnu poruku prihvaćanja različitosti među ljudima<br />

koju je važno razvijati od malena, jer Antuntun je<br />

dobrodušna i vrlo posebna osoba, drugačija od svih<br />

koje nas okružuju. Možda on ponekad izgleda čudno<br />

ili se ponaša onako kako nitko ne očekuje i ne radi<br />

u stvarnom svijetu, no upravo je u tome njegova<br />

vrijednost. Maštovite ilustracije dobrodušnog i<br />

neobičnog Antuntuna s mnoštvom duhovitih prizora<br />

užitak su za oči i dušu djece i odraslih.<br />

Gospodin Otto i stari naslonjači [Mr. Otto and old armchairs]<br />

Sipar, 2010 • ISBN 978-953-6415-75-5<br />

This story is about Mr. Otto who is a master<br />

upholsterer. He repairs old chairs and covers<br />

them with beautiful new materials of amazing<br />

colours and patterns. Anyone who sits in a<br />

refurbished piece of furniture, sails away in a<br />

different <strong>world</strong> and feels marvellous. Master Otto<br />

has a neighbour, a curious little girl who loves<br />

to watch him through the window of her room.<br />

She is very curious about the blue haze which<br />

envelopes his home while he is working. When<br />

the old master and a small neighbor finally meet,<br />

the girl will discover the whole unknown <strong>world</strong>.<br />

Thanks to the unusual master she will find out<br />

the secret – how, with lots of knowledge and<br />

skills, some good will, and a little magic, not only<br />

can the old chairs be restored but people as well.<br />

With a little imagination (or green mist) their old<br />

ties and relationships become like new.<br />

Priča je ovo o gospodinu Ottu koji je majstor tapetar.<br />

On popravlja stare naslonjače i presvlači ih predivnim<br />

novim materijalima krasnih boja i šara. Svatko tko<br />

sjedne u tako obnovljeni komad namještaja, otplovi<br />

u drugačiji svijet u kojem se i sam osjeti čarobno.<br />

Susjeda majstora Otta, radoznala je djevojčica koja<br />

ga voli promatrati kroz prozor svoje sobe. Ono što<br />

je najviše čudi jest zelena maglica kojom je obavijena<br />

njegova kuća dok radi. Kada se stari majstor i mala<br />

susjeda konačno upoznaju, djevojčici će se otkriti dotad<br />

nepoznati svijet.<br />

Zahvaljujući neobičnom majstoru saznat će tajnu<br />

– kako, uz puno znanja, volje, umijeća, te malo čarolije,<br />

obnoviti ne samo stare naslonjače, već i ljude i njihove<br />

već pomalo istrošene veze i odnose koji, uz malo mašte<br />

(ili zelene maglice), ponovo postaju - kao novi.<br />
