Die besten Beerdigungen der Welt

It all starts with a dead bumblebee. Ester wants to bury it in a clearing that can only be reached by the children's secret path. Ester is in charge of digging, I will write a poem at the grave, and the little one is supposed to cry. But, of course, a funeral is not enough. Now more dead animals are needed. Ester picks up the phone. Ulf Nilsson's story about this very serious game of life and death is as precise as it is humorous. Everyone will find themselves in it and be reminded, without sentimentality, of the liberating way children deal with death. Eva Eriksson's wonderfully subtle illustrations complement the story perfectly. A picture book that the Swedish original publisher has already called a classic of tomorrow.
