Dooly, the little raccoon, wanted to go to kindergarten, just like his brother Booly. But he was still too young for that, and had to stay at home with their mother. For a long time, all he could do was watch his elder brother Booly go to kindergarten and do lovely things there with the other little raccoons, while he could not go yet. But Dooly soon grew up, and the time came when he was ready to go to kindergarten too. Dooly felt so proud and happy, because finally, he became a true 'kindergarten-raccoon'! This is a story your children will love and enjoy hearing again and again – especially the young ones, those who have just entered kindergarten this year or are about to begin kindergarten soon. The beautiful watercolour illustrations bring the story alive and help your child adjust to the coming or recent transition, and even look forward to it with joy. The story will also serve as reassurance to children who have already entered kindergarten and have a younger brother or sister who is about to join them.

A little water turtle and a little tortoise meet at the pond. The tortoise wants to swim like the water turtle and gets himself into deep trouble. Then the water turtle dives into the water to rescue him. They become close friends after that, and the water turtle even goes to visit the tortoise in his home under the bushes. This story about friendship and courage is one you will be able to tell your children again and again. Freshwater turtles do not always live in the wild in the same areas of the world. This charming tale has a special appeal to children, because it conjures up an imaginary meeting between the type of turtle your child is more familiar with, and the one that lives far away in foreign lands. It is a story pre-school children will enjoy and love. The beautiful watercolour illustrations will fascinate your child and bring alive the unique nature of those two animals in a way the child can identify with.
