The Gnome Book

A book about the life of the modern gnome has been on the wish list of Loes Riphagen, the author of 'Coco can do it!', for years. And as soon as you see the pictures of 'The Gnome Book', you will understand why: Loes has put all the creativity, originality and fantasy that she overflows with every day into this book. And not to forget her preference for drawing tiny things and jokes on every page. In her loving attention to the gnome, our small (often invisible) fellow human being, Loes Riphagen once again shows what a great picture book maker she is. Loes drew on everyday things to make the world of gnomes as tangible as possible. Little gnome Kik takes you into the world of the modern gnome. Discover how gnomes live, what they do and craft all day long and how they manage to stay hidden so well. Whether it's the step-by-step plan for making a gnome hat or a cross-section of a gnome house, you'll be amazed by every page!

'The Gnome Book' is fun to read and endlessly browse through from the age of 3. In 2024, this beautiful picture book was awarded a Silver Brush.
