Die Opodeldoks

by Paul Maar, Sepp Strubel, Barbara Scholz (Illustrator)

Wenn es dem kleinen Deldok night gelungen wäre, mit seiner selbst gebastelten Katapult-Drachen-Flugmaschine un seiner Freundin, der Henne Helene, eines schönen Tages über die Berge zu fliegen, wären sich die Opodeldoks aus dem Grasland und die Waldleute aus dem Waldland sicherlich bis heute fremd geblieben.

Reviews

[Tina · Rating 4 out of 5]

DIE OPODELDOKS sind die lustigen, am liebsten Hühnereier essenden Bewohner des Graslands. Wie kommt es da nur, dass die Waldleute auf der anderen Seite der Berge sie nicht mögen? Liegt es vielleicht an dem bösen Silberdeldok?
Eine lustige Abenteuergeschichte mit vielen bunten Bildern.
Besonders toll: das von Stefan Kaminski gelesene Hörbuch.
