KRASNA ZGODBA

Once upon a time, there was no happily ever after. But that is completely fine. Twin brothers, Dr Booklet and Curls McHat, and other inhabitants of Wonderville wander the city streets without a care in the world, each donning their own hat. They sweeten their lives with delicious donuts, delightful cups of coffee, and delectable words. But one day a seemingly insignificant mosquito fatally overturns the tale. Can our heroes still have their happy ending? A Wonderful Tale is a picture book about life, which occasionally takes a different turn. It carries the message that sometimes fresh beginnings are more important than happy endings.
