These lovingly illustrated books with their wonderful stories inspired me from the very first moment. The empathetic texts provide a great basis for conversations about a wide range of topics, both within the family and at school. Real friendship is never neglected, even in difficult times!

Afterword to the book:
"Life on earth is always a cycle in all natural processes, but we humans are educating ourselves to be linear and short-sighted. A rethink is long overdue in the context of global problems such as climate change and environmental pollution.
Children are our future. Teaching them how to understand and protect themselves, their fellow human beings and the nature around them in its entirety is a valuable and right step towards a healthy earth worth living on. We can still learn a lot from the little jellyfish and its love, interest and respect for everything that surrounds us."
