One day Grandma Nikkel was going to bake a carrot cake. "Run into the garden and get some carrots," she asked Karlchen. Karlchen willingly went on an errand, but on the way he disappeared somewhere. Where is he? It was as if he had fallen through the ground. Grandma looked for him behind a tree, behind a sheet that was drying on a rope in the yard, and in the garden shed. And then a trail of carrot cores led her to the wardrobe. That's where Karlchen was hiding! Stories about Karlchen the hare have been published in Russian for more than 15 years. During this time, they became very popular with young readers and became classics of family reading. Karlchen's world is understandable and close to kids, so they immediately recognize themselves in the main character and love to look at large, clear illustrations. And moms and dads find interesting tips in these books on how to communicate with a child and turn a daily routine into an exciting game. Rotraut by Suzanne Berner is a German artist with a worldwide reputation. In 2016, she was awarded the most prestigious award in the field of children's literature – the Hans Kristin Andersen Prize. This story about Karlchen is also included in the collection Karlchen, Papa, Mama and Grandma Nikkel.
