THINGS THAT PASS

It is a matter close to our hearts that even the youngest art lovers are invited to discover and marvel. A special example of this is the book Things That Pass by Beatrice Alemagna. How deep can a child's sorrow be – whether it's over a popped soap bubble, a small scrape, or more serious things?

With her enchanting drawings, Beatrice Alemagna offers comfort. She shows how time can heal almost every wound and tells this through the transparent pages of the book, which reveal a new little wonder with each turn. This lovingly designed book is ideal for talking to children about changes – always with a fine pinch of humor.

The lovable illustrations convey the magic of the moment and the importance of transience in our lives in a cheerful way – for example, how time passes and lets soap bubbles burst. The special feature of the book is the use of transparent sheets inserted between the pages. These sheets contain small drawings that, when placed on the respective page to the left and right, create a new overall image. In a sensitive way, the book invites readers to observe these changes and to engage in conversation. This creates fascinating flip-flop images that offer new perspectives on the small and large challenges of life.

Things That Pass is more than just a children's book; it is a work of art that helps young readers reflect on and accept the passage of time.
