What is the Oldest Thing in the World

Perfect for reading together or for taking your first steps into the world of reading.

Meet Frida and Oto, their lively parents, wise grandfather Gustav, dramatic uncle Maksimilijan, elegant aunt Viktorija, grandmother Ivanka, their cat Vanda, and a circle of friends who never let a day pass without some small adventure. 

These short, witty tales capture the chaos, humor, and warmth of an extended family you might recognize as your own—or as the neighbors next door, or even the strangers in a passing taxi. Together, they form a vivid, heartwarming portrait of family life in all its everyday magic.

A playful, universal collection that shows: every family is extraordinary, if you take the time to look closely.
