Christine Nöstlinger - Alev Saçlı Çocuk

The book, which started the writing career of Christine Nöstlinger, one of the multi-award-winning authors of world children's and youth literature, is now in Turkish at Günışığı Library. Nöstlinger, who fascinated young readers with his Hidden Secret Adventure with a Paper Plane, is this time before the little ones with his fairy tale story. In this book, the author tells how a child who looks different because of his red hair is ostracized as a mockery and the difficulties he faces in his relationships with his peers, how his life has changed unexpectedly thanks to a book. The book, translated into Turkish by the author Suzan Geridönmez and brought to life with the original designs of the artist Huban Korman, approaches society, institutions and administrations critically; glorifies family solidarity and intergenerational communication. Children want red candy, red balls, why not red hair? asks the postman. Little Frida doesn't know that either. All she knows is that she's always been teased at school because of her unusual red hair. Flaming Frida is coming! There is fire, there is fire! the children shout, they even try to throw him into the water. The postman tries to help Frida, who is very upset. Frida is also very curious about the red book in the house where she lives with her aunt and Cat, where she cannot read the strange sentences. But unfortunately, her aunt has long forgotten the language of this strange book.
