All these questions are answered in the picture book cinema.

Every weekend, professional actors read up to three picture books to children and their families, which are projected onto the screen at the same time. The books are exciting for children from the age of three as well as for older siblings up to the age of six.

Grandma Apo & Uncle Flores - role models for you and me!

Readings include the picture books "In Grandma Apo's Garden" by Wei Tang and "Uncle Flores" by Eymard Toledo. Grandma Apo and Uncle Flores make the world a better place! Grandma Apo does this by growing vegetables and fruits on the roof of the garden of her house in a town in Japan and giving them away to many people. Uncle Flores sews curtains for the inhabitants of his village, which suddenly no longer looks gray, but colorful and diverse.The books are exciting for children from three to six years, but also delight older visitors.
