Books with title The Water Sprites

One spring day, the little Water Sprite is born in a house of reeds at the bottom of a mill pond. Duckweed soup, pickled water fleas, and other dainties are served to celebrate. The little Water Sprite grows up quickly, and soon he is bored of gazing out the window at the newts and fish swimming by. There is a whole new world to see outside his living room, and the little Water Sprite is determined to explore it! In the pond he makes friends with Cyprian the carp and encounters the fearsome nine-eyed lamprey, but his most thrilling adventures await him on dry land.

The story of a child who stumbles upon a portal. He enters the mesmerizing world of the Water Spirits where everything is beautiful and magical, but soon he finds out that things are not as they seem.Although the book can be categorised as a classic-folklore type children’s book, it was not created exclusively for children. The author wrote the story believing that fairytales are not necessarily “kid’s stuff” and has something to offer everyone.It is a tale rather dark, like the classic tales of Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen and folklore tales. The illustrations accompany and enhance this vibe. The book contains four big full-page illustrations, made exclusively in pencil and seven small ones.
