Description
Polonca Kovačová is one of the most popular Slovenian authors of children's books. The book 'The Little Witch's Herbs' is unique in how confidently it combines the author's skill in humorously and imaginatively developing the plot with unobtrusive educational content. The little witch Lenka moves in with a family of mice and other animals, introducing them, especially the little mouse Lolek and his sister, to the secrets of the apothecary's art. She discusses 34 medicinal herbs, sharing the most important information about each from a professional perspective, all woven together with events, conversations, and humorous situations that also utilize linguistic comedy, so the young reader hardly realizes they are actually learning. The enchanting atmosphere is complemented by the charming illustrations of Ančka Gošniková Godec.
