Härra Linnu lugu [Mister Bird’s Story]<br />

Tammerraamat, 2009 • ISBN 9789949449378<br />

Mister Bird lives in a big forest along with his<br />

hardworking friends, who are happy and content<br />

with their lives, building nests and singing in<br />

the choir. However, Mister Bird finds this kind<br />

of life too boring and ordinary and leaves the<br />

forest in order to experience something different.<br />

He tries being a pillow, a hedgehog, a snowman,<br />

a carrot and a fox, and in the end, he finds that<br />

a bird’s life isn’t that bad after all.<br />

Härra Lind elab koos teiste lindudega suures metsas.<br />

Tema sõbrad on rõõmsad ja oma eluga väga rahul. Nad<br />

on ka äärmiselt töökad: punuvad linnupesi ja laulavad<br />

laulukooris. Kuid härra Linnu arvates on selline elu<br />

igav ja harilik. Ta lahkub metsast sooviga teistmoodi<br />

elada ning proovib olla padi, siil, lumememm, porgand<br />

ja rebane. Lõpuks avastab ta, et linnuelu pole sugugi<br />

nii hull.<br />

Mõista, mõista, Leenuke! [Riddle Me, Riddle Me, Little Leenu!]<br />

Päike ja Pilv, 2010 • ISBN 9789985999745<br />

The book describes one evening when little<br />

Leenu cannot go outside to play because it is<br />

raining. She suggests that her mother, father<br />

and grandmother start playing a game of riddles.<br />

Even though she merely asks them simple riddles<br />

about wild animals, her family comes up with<br />

completely unexpected answers. Leenu learns the<br />

folk names of the animals roaming her homeland.<br />

Raamat kirjeldab ühte õhtut, mil väike Leenu ei saa<br />

vihmase ilma tõttu õue mängima minna. Nii teebki<br />

ta emale, isale ja vanaemale ettepaneku hakata<br />

mõistatuste mängu mängima. Ja kuigi tüdruk mõtleb<br />

välja lihtsaid mõistatusi metsloomadest, vastavad<br />

pereliikmed talle täiesti ettearvamatult. Mängu<br />

käigus saab Leenu selgeks kodumaiste metsloomade<br />

rahvapärased nimetused.<br />

A wandering mother cat is looking for a place<br />

to give birth to her kittens. She finds an empty<br />

kittens quickly turn into good little helpers, but<br />

when a big rainstorm comes, they must all hit the<br />

road together again.<br />

saaksid ilmavalgust näha. Ta leiab posti otsas<br />

ilmaletoomiseks. Neli kassipoega kasvavad varsti<br />

tugevaks ja osavaks. Pärast suurt äikesetormi asub<br />

rändav kassipere jälle teele.<br />
