Pupa 2+
Andreja Peklar
The story, intended for the youngest, introduces little Pupa, who, after receiving a mysterious letter, bids farewell to her little sisters and sets off on a journey. Her journey is exciting, sometimes even dangerous, and she learns new things along the way and discovers new feelings.
The author of the picture book is the renowned and award-winning illustrator Andreja Peklar, who, with her exceptional artistic expression, presents Pupa and her transformation into a butterfly while simultaneously taking us into the magical world of growing up.
