MEINE ERINNERUNGSKISTE

written by Raffaela Schöbitz, published by Gerstenberg, 2026 // 48 pages // Age 5+ Whether a beautiful stone, a shiny chestnut, an iridescent blue feather, or an abandoned snail shell: every little wonder of nature tells its own story in this book. And there's something fascinating to learn about each one! What are kingfisher feathers made of, for example? Where do pebbles come from? And do all snails have shells? For the child telling the story, the collected treasures are more than just beautiful things that spark curiosity. They are also precious mementos of a very special person—their grandmother. A warmly illustrated book that offers interesting facts about the little wonders of nature and surprisingly reveals a second layer of meaning: coping with the death of a loved one.
