Martin Ebbertz - Little Mr JaromirGerman title: Der kleine Herr Jaromir Patmos/Sauerländer 2002 Illustrated by Jens Rassmus 128 pages, 145 * 215 mm
Little Mr Jaromir
An endearing tale told with merriment and a poetic touch about one person's capacity for happiness. (NDR Radio)
Mr Jaromir comes from a land where poets and children mix together. We hope he comes back soon, as there is still so much to be done. (DIE ZEIT)
A charming, clever and original story, much praised by the press and awarded several prizes.
Little Mr Jaromir lives on the sixth floor. Each time he gets into the lift, he jumps as high as he can and presses a button. He usually reaches the fourth floor and walks up the last two flights.
Mr Jaromir is a child of fortune. He blows the biggest bubbles, he wins a raffle, and has many adventures. He meets up with a trolley thief in a supermarket, and for three days he is trapped in the lift, where he decides to plant tomatoes - a special variety needing little sunlight. What a shame Mr Jaromir buys so many balloons at the fair. With his hands full of balloons, he simply lifts off and flies away.
