It’s okay, to be sad!
This book is about little Lotta, who is suffering a lot from the Corona crisis and is very sad. It was my job to illustrate this story by Tobias Budde, whereby I had complete freedom in creating the visual world.
Children should talk about their feelings. Especially about those who are still negatively affected in our society. Being sad isn’t weak. It’s rather strong!
