Fuzzy Bee

Fuzzy Bee and Friends - that's Lia's newest book, which swarms with bees, flies, and worms. Quite brave to try and eat a bug ... Lia's first test of courage.


Books are fuuuun, especially those that do without words (which only distract from the actual plot). A promising career in Literary Studies lies ahead. You can always judge a book by its cover. And its pictures, as a matter of fact.


Our little bookworm, wriggling on her blanket. "Tall but petite" as the nurse at the doctor's office described Lia. Or as Thiemo put it: "It's like one of those rare occasions when you open a peanut shell, and instead of getting two big nuts you are presented with one slim peanut!" A pearl oyster peanut.

Sehr lobenswert, daß meine Nichte beizeiten beginnt, Bücher regelrecht zu verschlingen! Zusammen mit dem, was sie mit der Muttermilch mitbekommt, sollte sie ihren Bildungshunger und Wissensdurst stillen können. liebe Grüße von Prof. Onkel Chrischi und Tante Su

Lia, beware, not all bugs are tasty - although I am told that some "taste like chicken" and that some are "slimy, yet satisfying". Some probably are crunchy, too, like a peanut! However, some of them (the yellow and black ones) do sting when eaten - so watch out! Don't let them trick you: They look cute in books - but - as opposed to Mommy's advice - it's not ALWAYS a wise idea to judge a book by its cover (although often it saves a lot of time and weariness). But as long as you're only gathering theoretical knowledge, I'm sure no-one will be able to wipe that lovely smile off of your pretty face - and this means: life is good! Even with bugs.
