Hålla hand
(Holding Hands)
Jakten på slottsdraken
En liten röd räv, i en stor blå värld.
(A little red fox, in a big blue world.)
Everytyhing in this book is real, cause there are dragons.
You don´t belive me?
Well, that´s because they´re heavily protected and a secret as big as acutal dragons.
But this book, is about a very small one. Catsize infact. Thou the problems in keeping a wild dragon is still more than enough.
The author, Maria Byquist, is a new star in the world of books. She writes, with many details and a lot of facts, a story that goes from late 1600 and mystical societys, to speedy action in modern military huntingplanes.
In all this she still makes a story about love, loneliness and about the worth of real friendship.
With me, Christine Tomtlund, as the illustrator, and Marias story, the children (9-12) gets a funny and captivating storylesson.
Let me present to you, Flamma (Flame), the small dragon.
Hålla hand, is a new book with a focus on sticking together, despite differences. A touchbook for those who like animals. Who may have an older sibling who also should be able to appreciate the time when you reading together.
Holding hands is a book written by Anna Nordin and illustrated by Christine Tomtlund.
As always, with well-made animals and a natural look.
In the book A Little Red Fox, we get to follow little Eldröd who misses the parents one night and to find them, and for the first time, leaves the den at night.
The book is about becoming friends with the dark and being brave.
No pronouns are mentioned in the book. Eldröd, the little fox is a fox and everyone can be as brave as the fox cub.
Basically the whole book is blue which is a soothing color and it is intended as a bedtime story. An eventful but calm book to end the day with.
Children diserves good litrature and beautiful illustrations.
