Brother, sister

Norwegian title: Bror, søster

Thomas Marco Blatt

Bror, Søster contains a bunch of playful, simple and touching poems that deal with relationships between children, adults and old people. The book sees and perceives from the child's standpoint and shows how little everyday things contain the seeds of something big.The book is illustrated throughout by Lisa Aisato, one of Norway's foremost illustrators.

'Blatt’s poems are at their best when the poetic and the playful combine to express how intense love can be, especially for brothers and sisters. The harmonisation of words and pictures is outstanding. The drawings strengthen, confirm, supplement and develop what the poems are saying.'
