for over 3 year old children
There is a place in the forest where bird, fox and rabbit always meet and build great things. One day, a strange animal turns up with a suitcase. They’ve never seen one like it before. The three are curious. What does it want? Where did it come from? And above all, what’s in the suitcase? The animal answers them, but the three are suspicious. When it falls asleep from exhaustion, they break open the suitcase… A haunting story about being a stranger and also about arriving for all children from here and there.
