Reviews

  • Bettina Dauch, finnland-tour.de

    "The author, who is also known in Finland for the illustration of a children's edition of the Finnish national epic Kalevala, has decorated the individual funny adventures of the forest and meadow animals with charming and sometimes funny color and black and white drawings [...] A wonderful book for young and old, to read and read aloud."
