Mikeš

Rate this book
Asi jen málokdo neslyšel o mluvícím kocourkovi Mikešovi, který žil v Hrusicích
u Ševců. A o jeho kamarádech Pepíkovi, Pašíkovi a kozlu Bobešovi. Však se spolu
navyváděli veselých kousků a taškařic. Jednou se ale černý kocourek vypravil do
světa a prožil tam nejedno dobrodružství. Zvláště v cirkuse, kde na čas zakotvil.
Ale všude dobře, doma nejlíp, a tak se Mikeš zase vrátil domů, aby rozdával dětem
radost. Josef Lada napsal a nakreslil půvabné vyprávění z rodného kraje nejprve
pro své dcerky, později se s ním seznámili čtenáři časopisů pro děti, až nakonec
vyšla nesmrtelná knížka, kterou si zamiluje každý už od prvních stránek. Letos je
tu opět pro všechny své čtenáře!

About the author

Josef Lada

88 books12 followers
Josef Lada was a Czech painter and writer.

He is best known as the illustrator of Jaroslav Hašek's World War One novel The Good Soldier Švejk. He produced nearly 600 cartoons of the Švejk characters, depicting Austria-Hungary officers and civil servants as incompetent, abusive and often drunk.

Born in the small village of Hrusice in a cobbler's family, he went to Prague at the age of 14 to become an apprentice binder. He loved to draw and paint. Entirely self-taught, he created his own style as a caricaturist for newspapers, and later as an illustrator. He wrote and illustrated the adventures of Mikeš, a little black cat who could talk.

Lada produced landscapes, created frescoes and designed costumes for plays and films. Over the years he created a series of paintings and drawings depicting traditional Czech occupations.

He won the Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis in 1963.

Den Anfang fand ich ja ganz hinreißend, aber in der zweiten Hälfte zog es sich schon ziemlich. Eins der Highlights war allerdings Maunzerle.
