Description

Following on from the success of Filla and Fill, from the same creative team comes Germans. This lyrical, stunning picture book is a warm-hearted tribute to siblings and their magical bond, with stunning art by award-winning illustrator Sonja Wimmer.

Its true that sometimes we fight when we want to play with the same toys. But when night falls, we snuggle up together and fall asleep while we read fairy tales to each other. Were similar in so many ways! And were different in others. But one thing is for sure, and that is that well always be there to help each other out. It doesnt matter if stormy nights or evening shadows come to visit us. As long as we are together, we will get through them. Weve learned so many things together, and discovered that the day and the night, even though they seem so different, form a part of the same melody.

Germans is an inclusive picture book, both for boys and girls, for brothers by blood and for brothers of life. Both sisters and brothers appear in this magic tale that will delight the little ones in the house.

Desprs de l'xit de Filla i Fill, arriba Germans, un conte que ens omplir el cor. Un tribut als germans i al seu vincle tan especial, amb les illustracions de la guardonada illustradora Sonja Wimmer.

s cert que a vegades ens barallem quan volem jugar amb les mateixes joguines, per quan cau la nit sempre ens abracem i ens quedem adormits mentre llegim histries sobre follets. Ens assemblem en tantes coses! I en daltres som tan diferens Tanmateix, estic segur d'una cosa: sempre hi serem lun per laltre. En les tardes de tempestes o davant les ombres de la nit ms fosca ens farem costat. Hem aprs tantes coses plegats Hem descobert que la nit i el dia, tot i semblar tan diferents, formen part d'una mateixa melodia.

Els germans juguen junts, es barallen, sabraen, riuen junts i senfaden. Per, per damunt de tot, continuen units per un lla invisible que els acompanya al llarg del cam de la vida.
