Time passes, things happen, or Two stones and a zombie

Two talking stones encounter a tired zombie who would smash everything if he weren’t so tired. The stones try to change the zombie’s mind. Without spelling it out the zombie is the image of humanity ravaging our planet, while the philosophical stones represent a suggestion for a different way of being in the world: with thoughtfulness, consideration, and appreciation of beauty. The unique, humorous and important story has been crafted by Denmark’s most original picture book artist, who has e.g. received the major illustration’s award from the Ministry of Culture.

Themes: Appreciation of the beauty of the world, taking care of our surroundings
