Ida loves to swing - especially with her<br />
grandfather. When he dies unexpectedly one<br />
day, family and friends answer Ida's questions<br />
honestly, mostly gently, sometimes childishly<br />
bluntly. Immortal jellyfish are just as much a<br />
topic as people in heaven, and bit by bit Ida<br />
comes to understand what dying and death<br />
are all about.<br />
Elena Berz has written a touching book about<br />
the loss of a human being. Enchantingly<br />
illustrated with watercolors by Marine Ludin.

Waiting - that's not always easy for children ... Emil waits longingly for<br />
the snow, even in kindergarten he keeps looking out of the window. At<br />
home, he makes himself comfortable with his mother. Together they<br />
watch the clouds in the sky and see how it gets darker and darker. And<br />
then it actually starts to snow ...<br />
When quiet comes, there is time for magical moments, time to relax and<br />
yet discover many things: the safety, the warmth and the shared<br />
anticipation. The book is about mindfulness and the peace that (even)<br />
children should feel every now and then, despite all the hustle and<br />
bustle. The illustrations are also magical, integrating a real cloud photo<br />
on each page. They show how the sky changes and thus develop a<br />
unique charm.

Alia suddenly learns that her father has cancer, and this changes her life<br />
completely. She tries to find out what is behind this illness and discovers<br />
that the adults around her are also overwhelmed by the situation. With<br />
her persistence and warmth, she manages to make the daily hospital life<br />
of her father and his roommate Theo a little more colorful. But because<br />
she feels guilty about the illness, wants to do everything right and can't<br />
allow anger and sadness, she reaches her own limits.<br />
A touching children's book that very authentically reflects how children<br />
think, that they often blame themselves for illnesses and try to make<br />
everything okay. At the same time, it is a cheerful book that, despite the<br />
threatening illness, allows for positive thoughts and joie de vivre. With<br />
colorful illustrations inside.

always flying south, and the dirty little pig dreams of a wonderful<br />
bubble bath.<br />
When we dream, we can be anything. Together with the children,<br />
discover dreams and consider what of them might come true, and -<br />
this is the end of this wonderful picture book - how everyone can<br />
live their dream.

Mr. and Mrs. Hedgehog wish for a teeny tiny baby, but unfortunately it<br />
doesn't want to work out. They ask the other animals of the forest, the<br />
rabbits with their little long ears, the wild boars with their freshlings and<br />
finally the wise owl. All of them give well-meaning tips, but what suits the<br />
other animals does not help the hedgehog couple. When they finally<br />
return to what hedgehogs like to do, the wait is finally over ...<br />
Sometimes it is difficult to have a child. Or it takes a long time to get<br />
there. Many couples have to find their own way here. The not-so-simple<br />
topic is explained in this animal fable in an easy and child-friendly way.<br />
And conveys two important messages: "Everyone is different" and "Stay<br />
true to yourself".
