There are children’s books that explain. And there are children’s books that accompany them – in situations that help them to sort out the incomprehensible. In the book “In my world”, Bruno talks to his grandfather about life, transience, grief and loss. Not lecturing, but probing, questioning, and warm.
This touching book by author Sabine Bohlmann invites you to reflect together, with beautiful graphics by Simona Ceccarelli.
When a child reinvents the world – and encounters what remains
Bruno has an idea that is both childlike and radical: If he could invent the world, many things would be different. Why do people actually have to die? Why does anything ever come to an end? Bruno can’t understand why his grandfather isn’t angry with the world – because his grandma is no longer there.
The text does not pretend that there is one sentence that cures everything. Instead, something much more valuable emerges: A conversation about the connections. And with great sensitivity and depth, they both realize: Perhaps the world is just right the way it is.
The publisher recommends the book for ages 4 and up, it has 32 pages and is intended to be read aloud together. With beautiful graphics by Simona Ceccarelli.
