The most beautiful reading stories from the GDR, published over six decades by the Children's Book Publishing House, are included here. Authors such as Benno Pludra, Hannes Hüttner, Fred Rodrian, Eva Strittmatter, and Werner Heiduczek are of course featured, as well as illustrators like Elizabeth Shaw, Ingeborg Meyer-Rey, Werner Klemke, Eberhard Binder, Gerhard Lahr, and many more. As an added treat, the volume contains some out-of-print classics, such as "Häschen Schnurks" by Harald Hauser and "Taps und Tine" by Hannes Hüttner. A true treasure trove of stories, a tribute to the children's literature of the past - and a must-have for every family!.
