About the book

Read a lovely story about Bibi and Gusti chasing away sorrow with the help of soap bubbles, anti-cold tea and heart-shaped cookies. It really helps when you have a cold ... in your heart. "Atchoo," Bibi sneezed. "Five," Gusti sighed. "Five what?" Bibi asked sourly. "This is the fifth time you sneezed, Bibi. When you sneeze the fifth time, I worry something is wrong." The picture book has been awarded the prestigious literary award Izvirna slovenska slikanica - nomination. The comment of the selection panel for the most beautiful original Slovenian picture book: The lovely story by Ida Mlakar is close to children experience-wise, humorous and encouraging. It is an example of a picture book that can be of help to children and their educators with understanding, accepting and overcoming bad moods. The illustrations by Kristina Krhin bring a special freshness and tenderness that enables the story to touch the sensitive and creative child's soul. The illustrator achieves this desired effect with a deliberate use of combination technique. The water colors particularly give her the ability to create a transparent and airy look of the scenes. The piggies as the main protagonists of the story also have a lyrical look to them. Take a look at other Didakta's picture books that have received the prestigious award Izvirna slovenska slikanica.
