TAKI AND GRANDMA

Norwegian title: Taki og bestemor

Taki is a little girl who is bored. Mum says she can go out to play. Nothing’s happening outside, so Taki starts to break pieces off a tree. Of course you shouldn’t do this, and that’s when Grandma turns up.

Tooji Keshtkar debuts with a picture book that he has written and illustrated himself. In Taki og bestemor he provides painful and imaginative insight into the death and loss of those we love most.

‘Taki og bestemoris a sweet little book about big questions’DEMOKRATEN‘despite the simple language, the content alludes to big existential questions – questions for which only the youngest readers will require an answer.’GJENGANGEREN
