This book is a collection of short stories for small children. These are little sketches about the beauty of everyday life through the eyes of a child.
Magic acorn
- This is an acorn. And this is a chestnut. An acorn will grow an oak, and a chestnut will grow a chestnut.
- What about a peach pit?
- Peach.
- And from an apricot stone?
- Apricot.
Luna twirls a smooth, shiny acorn in her hands. It is small, but magical: an acorn itself, and a whole oak tree will grow out of it!
The sea got angry
It grumbled, pounded its fists on the shore, stamped its feet on the shore and shouted loudly and angrily:
- Brrrrrshshshshshsh!
Luna was afraid for the sea. What made it so upset? Who made it angry?
Luna picked up a beautiful stone on the shore and threw it into the sea.
- Plop! - said the stone.
- Shhhhhhh! - the sea answered.
Then Luna took a larger pebble, swung harder and threw it even further.
- Bulk! - said a bigger stone.
And the sea answered:
- Pshshshshshsh-Plop!
- So you're hungry! - Luna guessed and asked her dad to take the biggest stone and feed the sea.
- Bulk! - this dad threw the biggest stone far into the sea.
- Shhhhhhhhhhhh…” the sea muttered.
-It means "thank you" in maritime language. - Luna translated to her dad.
