Freunde

The stories by Helme Heine are about friendship and coexistence. The illustrator and author once explained that he tested them like in the theater. He cast roles with characteristic animal figures, designed costumes, and created a stage for his narrative. Only then does he write and paint. "I owe a lot to my work in the theater. You don't just hang picture after picture like in a calendar, but stage a story." - Helme Heine.
