Tiny Books
Diversity in children's literature

Our pocket books are short illustrated stories on a foldable sheet of paper, jointly developed by children's book authors and illustrators from Estonia, Lithuania, France and Germany. Every child can download the books for free, print them out and fold them into their own little book. The stories for reading aloud and reading to yourself are also easy to use for workshops and educational activities in schools, preschools and libraries. The aim is to teach children about human rights, promote reading and encourage creative collaboration between European children's book authors and illustrators.

In addition to these central concerns, the project aims to stimulate a debate on greater diversity within the literary scenes. Which topics play a role? How diverse is the literary market? Which players have access? Diversity and intercultural exchange is therefore also an important part of the project itself.

The collection of pocket books is supplemented by accompanying educational material.
